Long Time 914 Suppporter Mechanic needs Moral Support, Wes from H & H Enterprises is In and Out of the Hospital Options

[bandjoey]

Although I didn't know Wes personally, he spend time with me answering newby questions, and even some free advice on the phone. In Dallas, many know the Saturday Hangout at his shop. I don't know how long he's been in business but it wouldn't surprise me it someone said 20+ years. He is the classic old timer Porsche mechanic. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif)

Last time I went by, there must have been a couple of 911's and about 6 914 in the door.


I heard he was in Hospice, and Ron stopped by his shop to find out the straight. He is in remission from Prostrate Cancer, and recently fell and broke a hip. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)
Now in rehab.
Ron or someone local to Plano can add more details here and possibly a photo or 2 of his shop.

I doubt he has email but it would be a nice gesture to mail a get well card or 2, with THANKS for all the work he's done for the local 914 community. I know it's a hassle to go get a stamp but....

Let's send him some Porsche Cheer!

Wes will be in our prayers.

Now, the admonition! Prostate (note the spelling) cancer is one of the most curable cancers, IF caught early. When you have your annual physical, the blood work includes a PSA (Prostate Specific Antigen) test. Be SURE you have that done. If you don't routinely have an annual physical, change your life plan and DO IT. If you're insured, maybe even if you're one of the newly insured, many insurance plans give you a free wellness exam every year. Use it! If you're one of the uninsured, maybe you live in a state that it's difficult to get insurance, get an exam anyway! FYI, the cure rate is like 95% if caught early, and a big percentage of older men have, or will have, it. We don't want to lose you!
