Discussion Preparations, CSUDH:
Doctor's Reports
Thematic IndexThe Doctor in the morning spoke a little too quickly. Cysts in both breasts were drained at 4 p.m. yesterday by the surgeon. But there were complications with one. They are doing a chemical analysis. But I don't have to go back until October 6 for more tests, which means this is minimally a reprieve, and that it is definitely not a tumor. And maybe it will still mean no cancer, no surgery! I am pleased to report that my husband did not faint, and got me safely home where I promptly collapsed in exhaustion. Thank you all for your prayers. love and peace, jeanne
NO CANCER! NO SURGERY! Doctors can treat without surgery. I'll be there next week! jeanne

for NYSEA conference at end of September.Special Project Option Available for Fall 2000 Semester:
Check out Dr. Notess' site. He is developing a community forum course for helping people discover non-adversarial means of decision-making and working together. He is offering the course with us on Dear Habermas, and would like for some of you to help him evaluate it as a distance course. This is an exciting opportunity for those of you, especially, who would like to work with youth and local communities, as well as with older adults.
We will either set this work up as an interactive project for one of my classes, or provide independent study credit. Either way, I think you will gain a great deal from Dr. Notess' work. Please
Dr. Notess, if you are interested.
