I will be driving a woman from southeastern Colorado to visit her Mom in ICU in Colorado Springs. Her Mom has been there since surgery on Aug 21st. Las Animas Helping Hands has been driving them weekly to visit her while one of the patient's daughters stays with her in ICU. This family has no transportation.

Today I found out that the Mom in ICU is being accepted into a hospital in Denver that specializes in weaning people off of tracheotomies. I will take the daughter to see her there on Saturday instead of the Springs. Transportation for people from southeastern Colorado to specialist is a huge issue. Thank you for the encouragement!
