Dear Friends,
During my 8 hour battery of tests Tuesday January 4th, they did two more biopsies on me. I must admit I was thinking to myself, "When you have Stage 4 Metastatic Melanoma, how much more cancer do you need?" Two days later the Doctor called and said, "The tests were negative. I am so happy to tell you this!" Behold, she brought me good news. I wanted you to know!
I return to OHSU Monday January 11th for the next battery of tests in order to receive the third drug for my cancer cocktail as part of the Clinical Trial in which I participate. I am excited, apprehensive, a little frightened, and hopeful all at the same time. Prayers and good thoughts are solicited, and appreciated. It has occurred to me that it not only takes a village to raise a child, but to fight a disease as well.
Finally, my dear friend Curtis Zimmerman and Dr. Dawn Graff-Haight, a gifted and caring Professor at Linfield College, have told me to make it easier for people to help me and the Keim Family. So, if you are able to help, you may contribute to our well-being at:

Thank you and God bless you!
