Stories from Grateful Patients: Larry

In His Own Words...
“I've been dealing with infection in my left hip, and I have had multiple revisions on it. Now I have to see a specialist in Atlanta, Georgia. That’s 300 miles away from my home. My son Brandon drove me to my appointments in Atlanta. My only income is from SSI, so I can barely afford gas for medically necessary drives.”
“With the help of the gas card Mercy Medical Angels provided me, I could drive to see the specialist and back. Their help made it possible for me to keep my appointments and make it there.”
“If I hadn’t gotten help from Mercy Medical Angels, I wouldn’t have known what to do. They are a real blessing!”
