Welcome to our blog!

Thanks for checking in! We will give updates on how things are going with our fight against multiple myeloma, a blood cancer, that keith was diagnosed with in march 2010. It will be an uphill battle, but one we will not lose.

update

keith will be going to see doctor at UNC on Thursday for physical/labwork and to go over all tests that he took last week. He will be going in Monday 8/23 for his port and will receive chemotherapy 8/24 and 8/25 at the hospital (outpatient), then will start shots to stimulate his white blood cells for about 10-14 days. He will have a complete blood count done several times during this period and will be getting his stem cells extracted after his shots are done. We won't know when he will go into hospital until after this is done. Looks like mid september maybe. Will post more after thursday.
