MISSION 380 - PORTLAND / ESSENDON / PORTLAND
Subsequent Request (5th & 6th Angel Flights).

5 year old Lachlan, who lives in Portland, Vic, was diagnosed with leukaemia some months ago, and has been receiving treatment at the Royal Children's Hospital in Melbourne. He gets very tired and a little sick after and sometimes before his treatment, as he is on constant medication even at home. It takes the family 5 hours to get to the Royal Children's Hospital by car.

Thankyou from Carissa (Lachlan's mother)

I would just like to say after doing three Angel flights from Portland to Melbourne you guys and the pilots are true angels. You have made our trips to hospital for my little boy so much easier and more bearable for him. Locky now loves to fly and always has the earphones on so he can talk to the pilot usually all the way home.

Angel Flight has made such a difference to our lives and has truly touched our lives forever. Please except my sincere thanks in all you have done for my family and especially for little Locky. Once again I thank all of you, all those angels out there that have helped Locky.

God bless you all.
