Stories from Grateful Families: Jennifer

In The Family's Words...

"My husband and I are at Fort Benning. My husband is active duty. Our 17 year old son is at the Barry Robinson Center due to mental health and addiction. As a military family it is financially hard for us to go to VA, all the way from GA."


"Without the help of Mercy Medical Angels and Southwest Airlines, we wouldnt be able to go see our son as often, which is important for his recovery. Getting a flight was quick and easy. Very thankful for them and their service. Barry Robinson Center were the ones to set it up for us. The flights were great. You guys were able to accommodate last minute due to the prior weekend when my flight was cancelled due to weather. The flights, crew members, and pilots were fantastic."


"Mercy Medical Angels is a blessing . We are forever grateful that they exist and are able to help families in their most vulnerable moments. Thank you so much!"
