June 28, 2022 – It’s been 11 years since the transplant. Jesse and wife, Ashley now live in Winthrop, ME along with their 3 children, Weldon (10), Lily Ann (7), and James (6 months).
Several of the last 11 years have been great with little physical limitations. The transplanted liver did quite well for a while. However, the original disease that attacked and killed the first liver has returned and has done extensive damage to the transplanted liver. PSC, is again stricturing the biliary system within Jesse’s transplanted liver. He has undergone multiple ERCPs to dilate the primary bile duct. Now in the process of PTC procedures, whereby bile ducts are accessed by poking directly into the liver from the abdomen. Depending on how long this therapy can help and other factors, Jesse will likely need a second liver transplant in the coming years.

Jesse and his family (wife Ashley & son Weldon) moved to Grand Junction, Colorado the fall of 2012.
Jesse has a job with minimal BC/BS insurance. His monthly medical expenses are greater than his budget can afford. This is why his campaign is still open. Thank you to all who have and will contribute to his ongoing expenses.

Hi Jesse you do not know me but Judy Jim Carrie posted on the Karen Kingsbury page and we are all praying that god will provide you with the transplant that you so need. I am going to share this as well with others as well to perhaps make a contribution and of course for prayers!! May god bless you and heal you .

Hi Jesse,
Know God is doing a something special in your life to glorify Him. Was glad your mom sent me to this link. When we go to Colorado we haven''t been able to see your mom and dad. Hopefully we will get to see them this summer. I have a brother and sister in Greenville. Koko Korver is my brother and Kim George is my sister. Kim''s husband Joshua is the chemistry teacher at Bob Jones Academy. It would be a small world if you knew one of them. I will be sure to keep you on my prayer list.
