Update on Wes

I (Morgan) have been recieving a lot of emails and messages through FB on the status of Wes Haws, the project manager that was hit in the head with an axe. I thought that I would post this message I recieved from Wes' mom this afternoon.

Wes has had a couple of very hard days, he is in a lot of pain and discomfort. They decreased his sedation and pain medication because his heart rate and oxygen levels were very unstable and going very low and thought it was because of the medication but now they are not sure that is the problem so after a lot of consultation with american doctors and his neurosurgeon there, they have decided to send him to a very good and modern hospital in Tel Aviv Israel where he will get much better care. They are concerned with the pain and discomfort that it is not good for the swelling to reduce and healing in his brain to be at it's best, he needs to be calm and resting and unstressed during this time. They (Wes and Alyssa) will be leaving on a medivac flight early Sunday morning for Israel. (about 11 p.m. saturday night our time) Alyssa's sister and Everett will come on a comercial flight later and their 5 children will be staying in Addis Abada with friends and going to school there for the time being. He will possibly, depending on his speed of recovery, have to be at the Israel facility a month or so. We will try to get another e-mail address there to be able to send him letters and well wishes while he is recovering.

Mom and Dad, hope you don't mind I posted this but many were concerned and I don't know if you guys are getting as much info as we happen to be. Our prayers are with Wes and Alyssa.
