A WORD OR TWO FROM ME
by Karen E. Jarosz ( Karen@lonekeep.com )
------------------------------------------------------------------
Thanks to our sponsor, Home Improvement Guide! Ah, Thanksgiving! Time
for turkey, gravy and all the trimmings. Yet let's not forget the true
meaning of Thanksgiving... A time to reflect on the good things in our
lives and give thanks for them. Family is one that is first on my list!
I hope you will take a moment and giv thanks for your blessings and if
family and friends are on the list, spend some time with them enjoying
some of the Local Happenings and let them know how happy you are to
have them in your life...
Please don't hesitate to let me know of events you are aware of.
Just keep in mind that I do have a deadline because we publish
the 1st and 3rd Monday of each month so I do need information
the Friday before or I can't include it.
Don't forget you can sponsor an issue too! Just go to www.lonekeep.com/jscib and click on sponsor.
Until December 4th, thanks to all of you who read and share...

A SPECIAL NOTE FROM THE EDITOR
by Karen E. Jarosz ( Karen@lonekeep.com )
------------------------------------------------------------------
This was sent to me by a friend and I needless to say was very upset
and thought that maybe some good hearted people out there would be able
help out. Jacob Phillips is a young boy who is a sweet, bright boy and my prayers
are with him and his family!!
"Jacob has advanced cancer and is in Robert Wood Johnson Hospital.
Fortunately, he has an excellent oncologist and a fair chance of beating
this thing through a year of aggressive treatment.
He's in good spirits. The first round of chemo went very well.
We are looking for Blood Type O donors who might be willing to go
to New Brunswick a few times to donate blood or platelets for
Jacob when he might need them."
Thanks!!
