“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(I do want to note, however, that I met Dr. Jeff Karder as I walked down the hall from the emergency room today, on my way to climb the stairs to 330. He asked how Jane was, asked about her work, and books, and commented quite positively on her recovery from the recent infection and fever. “She’s very resilient, isn’t she?” he said, and I could tell that he was very pleasantly surprised and pleased at Jane’s performance. “My wife is an extremely strong-willed person,” I said, and Jeff agreed. He said he’d be up to see her, but is keeping tabs on her through records.

(Jane was pleased to hear my account of the meeting. “I’ll bet I can use that, about the resiliency,” she said, meaning that she’d incorporate it in suggestions, attitude, and so forth. Both of us were pleased that the incident had taken place.

(I meant to add in the opening notes that Jane’s resiliency was proving a learning experience for Jeff Karder as well as for her and me.)
