Panelists will be Diane
Kosmatka, a registered nurse
and clinical supervisor-
Hospice, Providence Medford
Medical Center; Kathleen
Waud, a registered nurse,
hospital supervisor, and co-
chairman of the Three Rivers
Community Hospital Ethics
Committee; Dr. Bruce P.
Murray, an internal medicine
physician; and the Rev. Carol
Howser, spiritual coordinator
and ethics officer for Lovejoy
Hospice.
The panel, said Lovejoy,
will discuss topics “which
have the potential to soon
touch us all either profession-
ally or personally.”
The program will de-
scribe the six ethical dilem-
mas and issues evident at the
end of life and the ways that
cultural differences may influ-
ence ethical choices. End-of-
life ethical decisions will be
discussed as reflected in dif-
ferent settings such as home
hospice programs, nursing
homes and hospitals.
Oregon’s Advance Di-
rective law has an important
and timely role in communi-
cating those ethical choices
and will be discussed.
Reaching an estimated
audience of 125,000 people
nationwide, the teleconfer-
ence will benefit multiple
communities, helping people
cope with the process of deci-
sion making at the end of life.
“Lovejoy Hospice is pre-
senting a local panel of ex-
perts who will discuss the
special principles which are
the basis for ethical decision
making at the end of life in-
cluding the crucial role of
Oregon’s Advance Directive
Law,” said Judi Hill, Lovejoy
Hospice outreach coordinator.
“It is our goal to have
each participant come away
with new understanding when
applying ethical principles.”
The teleconference is
produced by HFA, a non-
profit organization working to
educate health-care profes-
sionals and the families they
serve on issues relating to
illness, loss and grief. The
program is co-sponsored by
the Foundation for End-of-
Life Care, in cooperation with
the Adventist Communication
Network, Alzheimer’s Asso-
ciation, U.S. Administration
on Aging, and U.S. Dept. of
Veterans Affairs.

and registration, phone 474-
1193 or (888) 758-8569.
Two young Illinois Valley poets whose works were featured
at a recent poetry slam competition earned gift certificates for the
Book Exchange and their efforts published in the ‘Illinois Valley
News.’
The event, sponsored by The Shining Stars, took place at the
Blue Moon Café during the Friday, April 8 Art Walk. All con-
testants received participation certificates.
First place awards went to Mikhail Thomas, a senior at Illi-
nois Valley High School; and Sarah Spring, an Evergreen Ele-
mentary fifth grader. Second-place winners were Jesh Hubbard in
the high school bracket, and fifth-grader Myana Dhenin and
third-grader Brelyn Dhenin tied in the elementary bracket.
A poetry slam is a competitive poetry reading in which par-
ticipants are judged on the quality of their performance and work.
They come so quick like dreams
And leave me asking why
Why would I ever trust one
And know it’s not a lie
I searched for any of them
To make sure I’m not lost
For looking blindly past them
May pose a severe cost
For a time I knew one of them
Could be lost with a knife
So close I came so many times
To losing my own life
I knew I couldn’t do this
I knew I must refrain
For doing this could bring someone
Unforgiving pain
So losing life I learned it
And causing pain I knew
So knowing love completely
Was the only blank I drew
So if I had just one wish
I think it would have to be
Let life be lived without the pain
And have true love come to me
By SARAH SPRING
The Cricket Stone
The cricket stone
is a lucky stone
it is your stone
it can be what you want it to be
it can be blue or green or gold
it can be the sea
it can be a tree
or it can be your heart
don’t say you have a heart made
out of stone
say you have a cricket heart
or a lucky heart
because I know
it’s somewhere
inside of you

By MIKHAIL THOMAS
Of life love and pain
These things inside my heart
I don’t know what they are
For I cannot tell them apart
TATTERED TALE - This sign, directing visitors to Ore-
gon Caves National Monument, continues to deterio-
rate. Located at the north end of Cave Junction on
Redwood Hwy., the sign is one of many elements con-
tributing to a visitor’s first impression of Illinois Valley.
There are no announced plans to replace the shabby
sign anytime soon.
Imagination was given to man to compensate
him for what he is not; a sense of humor to
console him for what he is.
- Francis Bacon -
