Discussion Preparations, CSUDH:
Doctor's Reports
HOMEThe 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

We ordered 10 copies of Faraganis at the CSUDH Bookstore. They should be in within ten working days. Meanwhile work with Site Summaries. jeanne
HARDCOPY TEXT.
I started this review with critical theory because that is what I teach, and place W.E.B. Du Bois next, because students have already come in for help with Du Bois. These graduate hours are face-to-face time for student requests for review help. As much of my explanations as I can manage to write up will be available on the Dear Habermas Site for all students to use. I'll link them from Graduate Review. Uploaded September 19, 2000. Online.
