Speakers & Moderators

Audrey joined the HealthTree Foundation as the Myeloma Community Program Director in 2020. While not knowing much about myeloma at the start, she has since worked hard to educate herself, empathize and learn from others' experiences. She loves this job. Audrey is passionate about serving others, loves learning, and enjoys a nice mug of hot chocolate no matter the weather.

When Keith Guernsey of Gainesville GA was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2018 he had no idea the trajectory his life would take. His prostate cancer was successfully treated with a robotic surgery and he moved forward eager to embrace his full, healthy life. His momentum was short lived when a follow up blood test showed abnormal results. He was quickly referred to a hematologist and diagnosed with stage two multiple myeloma. He had experienced no symptoms indicative of myeloma which may have gone un-detected without his prostate cancer diagnosis and follow up work. Keith went on to complete induction therapy, and autologous transplant. He is currently in remission and works hard to remain strong and healthy. He credits his health to: • Working with a qualified myeloma specialist and following their recommendations • Taking all medication as prescribed • Getting regular exercise: find something you enjoy and keep moving • Eating nutritiously • Getting/maintaining a positive attitude. He also credits his wife (who he describes as “the best wife and caregiver ever”) as helping him get through his treatment and transplant.
