Happy New Year 2012

Happy New Year, Reader!

I am happy to report that my friend Terry Keller is as bright-eyed and healthy and robust as I have ever known him to be (in my few years of being acquainted with Terry and his family).

Here is a group photo of the Keller family and the Bigelow family and the Lewis family

(minus Brian Lewis, the photographer)

after we had ridden bicycles along the Bob Jones trail

from Highway 101 to Avila Beach on December 22, 2011.

Here is a photo of Holly Bigelow and Terry Keller at Avila Beach.  

It was a gorgeous day on the Central Coast of California!

Here is another group photo of all of us after the bike ride.
DJ snapped the photo, hence his absence.

Here is a photo of Terry and his wife Ellalina.  Isn't she pretty in pink!

Terry's most recent scan in December indicates that the one tumor remaining on his liver has shrunk in some parts and has grown in other places.  Please pray for the Keller family as they return to Stanford next week  (January 17, 2012) for Terry to take another treatment of the targeted chemotherapy, in order to do away with the remnants of that cancerous substance yet on Terry's liver.  I speculate that he will be ill for approximately a month as his body processes the poison, and that he will regain health and vigor and vitality and well-being just in time to travel to Peru with his girls Ellalina and Lexi in April for a hiking trip to Machapichu.  Be gone, cancerous stuff!
