Stories from Grateful Patients: Robert
July 10, 2025
In His Own Words...
"Hello! My name is Robert. I'm a Veteran who lives in Michigan."
"For years, I've seen different therapists that have helped out some, but I hit a plateau in healing. Last year I attended an outdoor adventure put on by Sheepdog Impact Assistance. They informed me about a peer support program called Warrior PATHH. But it was in Arkansas and I had no way to get there."
"Mercy Medical Angels helped me to get where I needed to go. They arranged and paid for my flights, to and from Warrior PATHH. It put my mind at ease not to have to stress about the travel plans."
"Thank you so much for providing these services for us Veterans."
~Robert
