BUSINESS BRIEFS JELLICO HOSPITAL OPEN HOUSE AG: EKU board of regents violated open meetings law The Attorney General issued a decision last week that the Eastern Kentucky University Board of Trustees “violated the Open Meetings Law by discussing mul- tiple potential layoffs in a session closed to the public under KRS 61.180(1)(c) and KRS 61.810(f). The Board violated the Act when it allowed non-members to remain in the closed session beyond the time in which their attendance was necessary.” The two cited sections of the Open Meetings law deal with the appointment, discipline or dismissal of an individual employee exemption, and the proposed or pending litigation exemption. Jennifer Perkins, news editor of The Eastern Progress filed an appeal to the Attorney General on April 17, alleging the Trustees violated the law at its March 19 special meeting. Perkins noted that the board went into closed session at 10:15 a.m. and returned to open ses- sion some five hours later, at 3:19 p.m. A closed session occurs when a public agency goes into a private meeting to discuss specific personnel issues, the sale of public property that could give buy- ers an unfair advantage, among others.

As a result of the disease, Gunner lost his large intestine and all but 42 centimeters of his small intes- tine, which resulted in him also having Short Bowel Syndrome. Gunner only has about 5 percent of his colon left that is functioning. There is no cure. There was no indication that anything was wrong with him until after he was born. Smith had never heard of the disease until Gunner was diagnosed with it. “When Gunner was born he never had a bowel move- ment then he started throwing up green bile,” Smith said. “So they shipped him from Jellico Hospital to Knoxville Hospital. He spent two months there.” After Knoxville, Gunner was sent to the Cincinnati Children’s Hospital for another two months where doc- tors put in a ileostomy (colostomy bag), a G-tube, and a central line in his chest. “Where his intestines don’t function, it can’t give his body the nutrients he needs to survive,” Smith noted. “He’s a very rare little boy.” Today, Gunner gets HPN/TPN nutrients (home nutri- tional treatment) for eight hours every day through his central line with Lipids added every other day. He has feedings through his G-tube for 18 hours daily. The treatments are administered mainly at night to give him more freedom. A home health nurse comes every week to change his dressings, and every other week to draw blood.

We must learn 2018 to forgive. I read a story once that goes like this. One night in a church service a young woman felt the tug of God at her heart. She responded to God’s call and accepted Je- sus as her Lord and Savior. The young woman had a very rough past, involving alcohol, drugs, and prostitution. But the change in her was evident. As time went on she became a faithful member of the church. She eventually be- came involved in the ministry, teaching young children. It was not very long until this faithful young woman had caught the eye and the heart of the pastor’s son. The relationship grew and they began to make wedding plans. This is when the problem began. You see, about one half of the church did not think that a woman with a past such as hers was suitable for a pastor’s son. The church began to argue and fi ght about the matter. So they decided to have a meeting. As the people made their arguments and tensions increased, the meeting was get- ting completely out of hand. The young woman became very upset about all the things being brought up about her past. As she began to cry the pastor’s son stood to speak. He could not bear the pain it was causing his wife to be. “My fi ancée’s past is not what is on trial here. What you are questioning is the abil- ity of the blood of Jesus to wash away sin. Today you have put the blood of Jesus on trial. So, does it wash away sin or not?” The whole church began to weep as they realized that they had been slandering the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ. Too often, even as Christians, we bring up the past and use it as a weapon against our brothers and sisters. Forgiveness is a very foundation part of the Gospel of our Lord. We must also be willing to forgive.

Getting caught up after a life-changing seven days t has been quite the Iweek for TREVOR yours truly, welcoming the SHERMAN arrival of my new daughter, FROM THE Olivia Abigail, seven days SIDELINES ago today (Wednesday). I am extremely happy and grateful to report that everything is going well at this time, but it was kind of rough on both my wife and I to spend three nights in the hos- pital before finally getting to come back home Saturday afternoon. A lot transpired during that time, so that meant I had my work cut out for me trying to get all caught up when I made it back into the News Journal offices Monday morning. One big news item was the dedication of Corbin High School’s tennis building to Coach Curt Hart. That ceremony took place last Thursday, so everyone could see the awesome new logo on the side of the build- ing during this year’s 13th Region tennis tournaments. I would like to personally congratulate Coach Hart once more on this honor. It is a very well-deserved honor considering all that he has done for the sport of tennis in our area over the past several years. As for the region tennis tourneys, I’d like to give a shoutout to everyone over at Corbin High School for hosting another successful event. There were some issues with weather delays because of the rain that we received over the weekend, but everything was still able to be wrapped up in a timely manner by Photos by TREVOR SHERMAN Monday evening.
