A Military Family's Story

Mercy Medical Angels | Angel Wings for Veterans

A Mother's Words...

My daughter was treated for depression and anxiety at a residential facility in Virginia, The Barry Robinson Center. We live in Missouri, which made visits difficult. But because we got assistance from Angel Wings for Veterans, we were able to go visit with her once a month.


Recently, her treatment plan ended. Thanks to Angel Wings for Veterans, we were able to fly her back home. Our flights were great. The treatment and family visits increased my daughter's quality of life.


I'm very grateful for Angel Wings for Veterans. None of this would have been possible without this great program. Thank you for everything!


-Daniela, military spouse
