Meet Ty! Ty was born prematurely at just 23 weeks with many concerns. Among them, his esophagus was sealed for a considerable length, making his condition even more complex. Ty's doctors referred him to Boston Children's Hospital, which was almost 2,000 miles away from their home in Oklahoma. Boston Children's was the only hospital in the U.S. that could perform the life-changing surgery required to reconnect Ty's esophagus. After many visits, surgeries and procedures, Ty's esophagus is now connected and he is smiling bigger than ever! Prior to his surgery, Ty was hardly able to do anything outside of his home but this year was able to start school. His mom says, "to see Ty thrive and just get to be with his peers learning is beautiful to see." "Children’s Flight of Hope has covered our flights, often every 2 weeks from Oklahoma to Boston! We were facing hard decisions as flights were going to have cost our family almost $4,000 a month! Our family is forever grateful for the blessing of Children’s flight of Hope. They will continue flying us to Boston for all needed visits. We are going soon for another 3 week stay for procedures and the amazing staff has already reached out to book flights. They truly make my life so much less stressful as battling insurance and scheduling so many things can feel like a full-time job. My full-time job needs to be spending time with my son and caring for my family. Thank you to everyone who donates to this organization. Please know you are changing children’s lives forever and giving families financial relief and opportunities to get our kids the best care no matter the distance."
