Support Jeff's Recovery Journey

So many of you have asked for ways to help Lynn and Jeff West, so I've created this as an answer to those requests. Lynn and Jeff would never in a million years ask for help from any of you, but I have watched them help others time and time again over the many years, and this is just one small way to give back to them.

As you know, on September 9th, Jeff West was hospitalized for necrotizing pancreatitis. He battled the pancreatitis at Bozeman Health for three weeks until an almost lethal case of infection caused him to be airlifted to Virginia Mason Hospital in Seattle, WA. He then spent two more weeks in the hospital undergoing endless procedures, surgeries, and CT scans. On October 29th, eight weeks after it all began, Lynn and Jeff headed back to their home in Belgrade and continued to make almost daily visits to the hospital to try to rid his torso of the buildup of infected fluid. However it was at this point, that Jeff had an aneurysm and things went from bad to worse. So again, they flew out to Seattle in January for a second opinion. He was hospitalized immediately and sent into surgery to fix the problems that had arisen. There are great hopes he will recover seeing his doctors at Virginia Mason.
