Lesa and Jim Holstine

If you're a lover of books, and if you hang out around this internet world of ours, then you must know Lesa Holstine of Lesa's Book Critiques.

You've heard me mention Lesa here from time to time.

She's the woman who keeps a lot of us bloggers on our toes.

She was one of the early ones - she discovered the power of the blogging word early on.

She started promoting writers and their books by writing reviews that are forthright and honest when blogging was still new and finding its way. She has kept the bar high.

Her generosity of spirit, intelligence and humor have won her the friendship and respect of all who come in contact with her.

She's not one to waste her time (or her readers') by writing the negative.

Negativity has no place in Lesa's world.

And right now she's asking for our help.

Lesa needs our prayers and our positive thoughts.

If you know Lesa, you also know she's married to Jim. The two of them have been a team in every respect for a long time; been through all the things you'd expect a team to go through - the ups and the downs.

And right now is the toughest of the downs.

Lesa has let us know that Jim has been diagnosed with metastic cancer. She asks that we send thoughts and prayers.

Let's do it.
