Our son was born with a clubfoot that relapsed this year at the age of 9. We do not have any doctors in our state that can treat a relapse in an older child, which involves a surgery. We paid out of pocket for all his care and never could have covered the cost of travel on top of that. Without Miracle Flights my son would not be able to walk right now! We are so grateful for this wonderful organization!

My husband is very sick and we had to travel from Sidney, Ohio to San Diego, California for medical treatment. We did not have the financial means to pay for our airfare. Miracle Flights was a wonderful blessing to us and provided a way when there seemed to be no way. We are so thankful for the service you provided to us.
Wading through going to a specialist in another state with a precious newly adopted four year old (castings, major surgery with hip sockets reformed with donor bone, 3/4" taken off each leg, hips put in socket, and feet flattened) is not easy on a parents heart. You hate to see your child in pain, even knowing the end result is a gift from God. Yet Miracle Flights stood by us with kindness and support. At one point (because of the unusual spica/body cast) we even needed two seats just for our son. Miracle Flights made it happen. To say that we couldn't have done it without them is the absolute truth. They are making a difference. Our son will be able to walk and they played a part in it.
I want to tell you that I am truly grateful for the noble work provided by miracle flights, because it has helped my family very much economically by providing the air transportation of my son and my wife to attend their consultations and surgeries in Galveston Texas, truly admirable is their Non-profit work and I would love that the people who within their means can contribute and help this organization my family and I thank them.
Unbeknownst to us, our 21 year old daughter has been fighting chronic late stage Neuro-Lyme Disease more than half of her life. Because the disease had gone untreated for so long, allowing other viruses to also ravage her body, she now has a very compromised immune system. During a round of much needed medication last year, she fell into a flare that she was unable to recover from. Her seizures also returned in full force, rendering her bedridden and in more pain. An MRI revealed both atrophy and hypertrophy in her brain which, along with her other symptoms and testing, suggested that the virus(es) had crossed the blood-brain barrier and were now causing Autoimmune Encephalitis. Thanks to Miracle Flights, we were able to fly to see a specialist and get the much needed testing that was unavailable in our state. Now she is awaiting IVIG treatment and will get the help she needs. We so appreciate Miracle Flights for their kindness and patience through the process! We also have to praise Southwest for their help with not only her wheelchair and front row seats, but for giving us an extra seat on the flight home to allow our daughter to sleep after a long week in the hospital.
My 8-year-old son has a rare childhood hip disease, called Legg-Calve-Perthes Disease, which has required several surgeries, restrictive half-body casts and the use of a wheelchair for over a year. Miracle Flights has helped us receive treatment from an orthopedic surgeon at Texas Scottish Rite Hospital who specializes in this disease. My son just took his first steps in 15 months! He is poised to make a full recovery, thanks to the support we have received from Miracle Flights!
Miracle Flights helped our family tremendously on our last trip. My daughter and I were able to take a quicker trip to and from our appointments that usually would be a 15 hour drive. This meant we were able to be back home with the rest of our family sooner. And the financial strain that the long driving trips made on our family were cut in half since my husband did not have to take off work to drive us there. Thank you so much Miracle Flights for your service!
Miracle Flight is an amazing nonprofit! We live in a semi rural area and have to travel to seek care for our son's complex medical needs. Miracle flight has made it possible for us to find the pediatric specialists that are experts in his conditions. The folks at Miracle Flight are understanding and kind. They go above and beyond the call of duty to help their clients and families through some of their most difficult times. Being free of the stress caused by the cost of travel and making the arrangements is a blessing to parents and allows us to focus on the important things; the health of our children.
Miracle flights have been wonderful to work with getting my daughter out to Boston children's hospital. We have used them a couple times already and it's nice to have one less expense to worry about. Also the costumer service is great
Miracle Flights is amazing. They flew me to Mayo Clinic it was such a blessing. I enjoyed speaking many amazing people working to help me there.
Thanks so Much for Everything.
Thanks to miracle flights I had a flight from Alabama to Washington State to have life saving brain surgery. I'm a 30 year old wife and mom of five children and I also have Chiari malformation. I began a quick decline progressively losing the loss of the use of my arms and legs. I had also started aspirating food and liquids everytime I ate or drank. I was to the point of being wheelchair bound and gtube dependent. I have regained my swallow ability and am getting stronger everyday since my surgery. I owe my life to Miracle Flights. I thank God for generous donors and supporters of this organization. My whole family thanks you!
Hola estoy muy agradecida ya que gracias a Uds, mi hijo pudo tener una cita con un doctor en St Louis y pudierion realizar el tratamiento adecuado para sus pies. Gracias a eso esperamos que mi hijo pueda caminar cuando sea mas grande
The agent who helped me was very professional. All questions asked were replied in a timely manner. It was a nice surprise to receive my ticket the next day I sent in all my applications.
I felt Miracle Flight was here to help me. Thank you Miracle Flight for making this happen and saving many lives worldwide.
Miracle Flights was such a blessing to our family! From start to finish the process was seamless and they were quick to respond back to me with any questions I had. Our trip ended up having to be extended a week and they were very accommodating by changing our flight information. So thankful for Miracle Flights!
Miracle flights was a huge blessing to us! We were able to get the treatment our son needed that we couldn't get in our home state. It was the best decision I made to take my son to a different doctor after the first one didn't work out and miracleflights made it that much more easier by not having to worry about the flight cost. Everyone I have talked to on the phone was extremely helpful and courteous. I even had to change a flight home since we got to go home earlier then we thought and they were able to do that right away. A great organization to use and a great organization to donate to.
I have to travel from Alaska to Texas every 6 months in my own expenses my son needs to get therapy in san antonio Texas and these nonprofit program Miracle flights makes my life easier i'm so thankful with Miracle flights
Thanks all the people Who make this possible
AMAZING!!! Traveling with a special needs child is chaotic, but Miracle Flights thought of everything and made both trips so easy, there was more than enough compassionate help
We usually spend 10 to 15 thousand out of pocket per year on my daughters medical expenses. In order to find specialized doctors we have to travel across the US. Miracle Flights has been extremely generous and has helped my family purchase plane tickets to these visits which helps us out extremely! Miracle Flights is an awesome honest organization and we appreciate their assistance so.much!!!!
