Day 290: Flight for Life

I am grateful for Flight for Life.  I've never had to personally use it but I am grateful for the availability of it should anything ever happen in which I, or someone I know, needs it.  On my way to work this morning I drove past a hospital in town that has Flight for Life very visible.  And that's when I started thinking about it. Flight for Life has saved thousands of lives.  The pilots have to be cool under pressure, fly smart, sometimes they are in the middle of potentially dangerous situations.  Flight for Life has been able to get people out of some fairly unreachable areas, it has delivered organs for transplants, it has made the difference between life and death.  I'm so grateful for its presence in our lives, even as I hope nobody I know ever needs to use it! What about you?  Have you, or someone you have known, ever needed the life saving transport of Flight for Life?
