On Valentine's Day 2003, our 2-month old daughter's life changed forever. Jordan Marie went from being a healthy vibrant baby to a child on full life support within 24 hours. She was diagnosed with a rare respiratory genetic defect that is usually fatal. BUT...the Lord had other plans!! Jordan received a life-saving double lung transplant 3 months later...just one of only a handful of babies to survive such a complicated surgery at such a young age. With all of Jordan's specialized doctors 700 miles away in St. Louis, the innumerable doctor's visits and follow-up medical tests seemed impossible to get to...until Angel Flight Soars arrived on the scene!! God, once again, guided our little overwhelmed, exhausted, and stressed family into the hands of the most incredible group of "flying servants" we've ever met. Now, after nearly TEN YEARS, THOUSANDS of AIR MILES, and DOZENS of hospital trips, Angel Flight Soars is still by our side every step of the way. Angel Flight Soars will FOREVER be part of our family! What a blessing and a God-send they continue to be! We are DEEPLY grateful to Angel Flight Soars for their never-ending dedication, compassion, efficiency, and kindness...you've kept our family going through the "ups" and "downs". GOD BLESS YOU!

Our son was 7mo old, just diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis and we took the long 5 hour drive to Augusta, GA from South GA. We were told about Angel Flight at one for our appointments later on. All it took was one phone call and they were ready to assist us in getting us to and from our appointments! We are so blessed to have become clients with Angel Flight! It has helped us greatly by saving us hotel and gas cost. We make this trip every 3 months! We have been honored to meet the awesome pilots that use their time and planes to help families! We appreciate everyone at Angle Flight are thankful for all you do!

Our child was diagnosed with a rare autoimmune disorder the summer of 2010 called P.A.N.D.A.S (Pediatric Autoimmune Neuropscychiatric Disorder Associated with Streptoccocous). So rare that there are only a handful of Doctors that treat for this disorder. Leaving us are only option to travel from GA where we live to New Haven, CONN. every two months for his treatments. Angel Flight Soars has helped us with every flight except two only because the weather was to bad for flight. We have been so blessed to have such a wonderful organization to help keep our son's life saving treatments up. Saved us so much money as well as travel expenses are crazy expensive. God Bless all who serve at this wonderful organization. We will be forever greatfull. The Youngbloods

I never thought I would ever need the services of Angel Flight, however, when a treatment became available to me for my breast cancer that was only available at the Sarah Cannon Research Institute in Nashville I didn't know what to do. How would I make the travel to Nashville and so often! With the assistance of Angel Flight in Atlanta I have been able to make all my treatments in Nashville without a problem. The staff who help coordinate the flihts have been so kind and courteous and the pilots, just life savers (angels with wings)!!! I would not be able to do this without the services of Angel Flight!! Thank You so Much. Angela Davern-Nelson

Never in my wildest dreams did I think we would be in need of an Angel Flight mission. My husband’s emergency carotid artery surgery in a city 300 miles from home gave me concerns for our return . Was my husband strong enough to withstand a seven-hour road trip? What would I do if he experienced stroke-like symptoms on an out of the way state highway? What would I do if we had car trouble? What if I had no cell phone service? The questions continued to haunt me.
They haunted me until our friend and Angel Flight pilot, Herb Entrekin, offered his help. Not only did he make the flight to get us home, he brought with him someone to drive our vehicle back. Herb strategically filed his flight plan with airports close to hospitals to take care of some of my “what ifs.”
I can’t begin to even explain the relief that came over me when my husband and I were greeted by our pilot and driver at the airport that morning. After being in charge of my husband’s care for a long ten days, I was SO GRATEFUL to turn everything over to two very caring men. When our flight landed, we were met by Herb's wife with bags of groceries, a chicken pot pie and flowers. She provided the last leg of our trip and delivered us safely to our home and our anxiously awaiting little dog.
Thank you Herb and Gail Entrekin. Thank you Butch Thurman. And thank you, Angel Flight Soars.

I had a tumor in my skull and jaw. It caused many symptoms over many many years. I had seen several doctors but no one could give me a diagnosis or treatment options for this rare condition. Finally, I was referred to the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN. I needed to travel there multiple times for treatment. If it wasn't for Angel Flight Soars, I would not have been able to receive the treatment I needed. The staff at Angel Flight Soars worked so hard to coordinate my missions and accommodate changes in my treatment schedule. The pilots are selfless, comforting and understanding. Thank you to everyone who gave me hope during a most difficult time.

I can not emphasize what a difference this organization has made in our lives as well as other families. My daughter was diagnosed with a rare bone cancer at age 14. She needed to see the best drs in the country and without Angel Flight, that would not have been possible. She has been to the best and because of them getting us to all these wonderful drs in CT, NY and TX she is still with us after 6 1/2 yrs of fighting. I know if she ever needs to get to the best medical care available, Angel Flight will get us there. God bless these wonderful people for all they do for those in need, fighting for their lives. Their are no words to express our gratitude to them yet they thank us for allowing them to provide their services. Truly amazing people and organization. Should you choose to see what they have done for my daughter log onto carepages.com and enter Kennedysplace. Also check the pictures.
