I want to let our SCCamper family know what's going on with Wes. Last Friday, he was getting ready for work and fainted. At the doctor's office, an abnormal EKG prompted a direct ride to the hospital. He was admitted and went through a battery of tests, including an angiogram. The results were not good. 3 of his major arteries are blocked (100%,80%,70%) with another artery blocked 70%. Stenting was not a viable option with that many blockages, so Wes is undergoing a 3, possibly 4 heart bypass surgery. He never sustained a heart attack, nor did he damage any heart tissue. His prognosis is for a full recovery returning to normal activity. I'm asking for prayer for him. Although, these surgeries seem to be routine these days, nonetheless, it's a major procedure. I'll keep you posted with his progress.
Thanks, so much, to our wonderful camping friends.

GREAT NEWS!!!
Wes came through the surgery very well. No surprises once they got inside.  They did 4 bypasses.  We haven't been able to see him yet, but hopefully, we can see him soon.
Thanks for all the thoughts and prayers...God is GREAT!

I'm sure he would enjoy a visit when he's feeling up to it.  He'll be in ICU for awhile.  I'll let you know when he's up for company.
