Multiple Conditions to Massive Relief: Caress Tells Her Story
November 15, 2022
"Ever So Grateful"
"I have multiple conditions, such as seizures, migraines and hip problems. I also have screws in my foot and have to wear a walking boot to alleviate the pressure."
"Because of my seizures and migraines, I need to see a neurologist in Atlanta, GA. Driving four hours by myself would have been difficult. I don't need to be driving with the heavy boot, and I needed wheelchair assistance. I have no means of transportation, but I couldn't find anyone to assist me in getting to my appointment."
"Mercy Medical Angels changed everything. They arranged a round-trip flight on Delta Airlines and I didn't have to pay."
"I don't know what I would have done if I couldn't attend my doctor visit. I'm ever so grateful to Mercy Medical Angels!"
