Rienk Janssen, one of the EWOB Festival's founders, retired from EWOB in July. The EWOB Steering Committee thanks him for his years of service to the EWOB Festival.
The Steering Committee has been restructured to include 7 people, rather than 5, and the many tasks involved in planning and organizing the annual festival have been redelegated. The new info is on the Contact page of the EWOB Festival website, so you can find the right person to contact on various issues.

At a time when Liz is unable to set foot out of bed, she says it means the world to her to see her songs take wing and fly. Liz has been too busy with EWOB work, cancer treatment, and lots of extra sleep to complete her new website with the wonderful Thirsty Lizards, but she intends to see the new website completed this fall.

Please note that while many of you signed up for EWOB information, 90% of this mailing list signed up for Liz Meyer's mailing list, but are happy to read about both.
Thanks for joining us!

LIZ MEYER NEWS:
Liz
missed the EWOB Festival 2009 due to severe back problems caused by an aggressive breast cancer invasion of the bones that virtually destroyed her spine (backbone). Since early June, Liz has been undergoing treatment at a very special little hospital in southern
Germany.
German cancer clinics are considered the gold standard in cancer treatment worldwide, and Klinik St. Georg is the gold standard among German cancer clinics. Liz attributes this to its medical director, Dr. Friedrich Douwes, whom she describes as brilliant, creative, and years ahead of his time. Dr. Douwes is also the President of the German Oncology Association. (Klinik St. George website)
Although Liz arrived looking like a lost cause, her treatments are going very well. The cancer invasion has been reversed, her bones are slowly and successfully being remineralized, and soon, with lots of physiotherapy and exercise, Liz will be able to sit up for the first time in 4 months. She
expects to be home in Holland before Christmas.
