Wes has asked me to update his page. He really isn't feeling up to getting on the computer much. So here is the latest update.....Earlier this week Cleveland Clinic declined him for a double lung transplant. This was the last hospital that he was waiting on an answer from. He was very upset by their answer. Although he was expecting their answer but it still upset Wes very badly. The doctor there told Wes that it was too late for a transplant and that he should use the time he has left to spend with his family.

Hospice continues to come three times a week and is making him feel very comfortable. He still has his ups and downs from day to day. Wesley said to tell those of you that are email regularly that he is sorry for not getting back in touch with you. He doesn't feel up to getting logged on to the computer much these days.

As always Wesley remains hopeful that God has another plan for him. Please keep him in your prayers.
