Jen Colmore of Living Compassion wrote Keenan to say I can't believe it has taken me so long to get this photo to you. We had so much fun telling the team in Kantolomba about Keenan's fundraising efforts. They were SO touched! They wanted their photo taken with his book and the article.
Here is the photo she sent - |

On Friday July 25, Keenan had surgery to reduce his seizures. The most limiting and dangerous of his seizures are his "drop" seizures, which cause him to fall to the ground with no chance to protect himself. The surgery has about a 70% success rate, and we're hoping Keenan is one of the 7 out of 10 who has a benefit from this surgery.
Keenan came home from the hospital on Monday, an amazing recovery - brain surgery Friday, home by Monday. He is continuing to recover at home, and everything seems very positive as this is written.

Since July 1, running through September, Keenan Dietiker has been featured on the front page of A Starry Night Production's web site. Take a gander over to http://www.astarrynightproductions.com/ and have a look.
A Starry Night Production's D.B. Pacini, a songwriter/vocalist, and the author of two novels, The Loose End of the Rainbow and Emma's Love Letters, has been extremely supportive of Keenan ever since she came across the article on him in the Union Democrat's Weekender. Thank you Donna!
