Dear Miracle Flights,

thank you so very much for helping all of us get Liam to Children’s Hospital.  We couldn’t have gotten there without you.  It was so important that we did.  Someday we hope to be able to help out Miracle Flights with a bigger donation – in the meantime we feel very lucky to be able to use your awesome service. 

Thank you!  Melissa, Lan & Liam

Dear Miracle Flights,

Ava will be a first grader in school this year.  She is sooo excited.  Ava does quite well.  Her left arm and shoulder will always be a work in progress, but with your help she gets the opportunity to be the absolute best she can be.  You cannot imagine some of the stress relief you have provided our family.

Thank you so much!
