Help Support Wes Witt Medical Expenses

Donation protected

Hello my name is Adam Jackson, I started this fund to help my cousin Wes Witt who has been diagnosed with Juvenile Ossifying Fibroma. Wes is 23 years old and  lives in Lebanon, Missouri. He graduated from college this past May. This past summer Wes and Arian welcomed a baby girl, Stevie.
Wes was diagnosed with Juvenile Ossifying Fibroma in November.  It is a rare aggressive non-cancerous tumor that is located in his lower jaw /mandible. This type of tumor spreads rapidly and destroys the bone. Because of the tumor's destructive nature, the only treatment is a complete lower jaw removal including lower teeth. Replacing the mandible/lower jaw will prevent any further spread of the tumor to bone tissue. Reconstruction of the mandible will consist of removing the fibula bone in his lower leg to be used as a replacement for his jaw bone. The surgery could last  8 to 10 hours and he will be in the hospital for approximately 10 days post surgery.  Once Wes has recovered from surgery he will begin physical therapy on his leg to regain the range of motion. Wes will have dental implants a few months post surgery. Complete recovery time is around 6 months. 

 Surgery is scheduled for January 6th at the University of Kansas Medical Center. 
Wes will be unable to work for several weeks. This Go Fund Me account will help Wes with medical expenses and loss of wages.
