[Oe List ...] Justin's condition

[Nancy Lanphear]

Dear Del, Justin and family,

During our community New year's celebration, we used toning  OMMMMMM 
and "Let there be Peace on Earth" to welcome in the new year.  I was 
struck by the appropriateness of that combination to those in our 
circle.  May you all experience and feel the vibration and oneness of 
the universe and the connection to all that is as you continue the 
journey through Justin's illness.  As a part of the "Spirit Community" 
/OE, we send our piece of the earth's vibrations and healing energy to 
hold you and bring a calmness within.  Most of all, remember that you 
are loved.  Please share hugs and know that some of them are from us.

Fred and Nancy
