Stories from Grateful Patients: Kathi

April 7, 2025

In Her Own Words...

"I was given an opportunity to participate in Warrior PATHH. It's a program to help veterans re-integrate from their experiences during their military service careers. A week-long intensive personal dedication is required on behalf of the Veterans guided by staff. However, I didn't know how I would get there."


"Mercy Medical Angels' program for Veterans made it possible for me to participate in Warrior PATHH. They arranged travel for me and even paid for it."


"Warrior PATHH was a great opportunity that presented experience-based treatment. This really allowed me to lean into it. I experienced a new perspective that gave me personal insight to my life."


"I would like to take time to appreciate all the individuals and contributors that make this possible for all veterans. This is especially true of Mercy Medical Angels' program for Veterans. Thank you, Mercy Medical Angels. We really appreciate your help!"
