Putting it Together - Getting DS Home for Surgery

I know, I'm supposed to be telling you how to make things on Friday. But I just had to share my good news.

As some of you know my 30+ year old son needs heart surgery urgently. There's been debate on how soon, and there has been a battle with the Government to get SS disability. He is and he will not be able to work full time for the rest of his life.

Background:  Kris was born with a very serious congenital heart defect. Several small procedures and 2 open heart surgeries later, he has been able to live far beyond what was predicted, thanks to the miracle working team at the Cleveland Clinic

Unfortunately replacement Valves only last 10 to 20 years, and the ones he has are leaking.

Here's the good news. He has surgery scheduled for Mid July.

We do need to get my son From North Dakota to Cleveland and we can't afford it. He is trying to work on a free flight service that it is a string of puddle jumpers who volunteer their time and fuel. It would be nicer if we can collect miles so he can take a real flight and save those nice people their time and money.

If you have any miles, or know anyone who is willing to donate, please contact me HERE Please use subject Air Miles, so you email doesn't get thrown out with all the spam I get. Thank you much and Thank you for forwarding this post for us.

XOXO Cinders

I'm so happy that your son has his surgery scheduled. I wish I had some miles to give. I have none. But if I know of anyone that does I will let then know about your situation. Best of luck with all!
