For six days, a father searched endlessly south of Port-au-Prince, Haiti. Trapped behind enemy lines, with zero money or resources, he refused to give up on his newborn baby girl.
Finally, he reached medical missionaries in Gressier—who knew exactly who to call.
Our team at HERO verified LZ security, loaded the medical crew, and launched immediately. With daytime-only operational constraints and a critically complex case, we couldn't wait for hospital acceptance. We flew on faith and urgency.
While in the air, a network of doctors across Port-au-Prince mobilised in group chats to coordinate her care. By the time our helicopter touched down, an accepting hospital was ready.
Today, this 7-day-old baby is out of surgery and on the path to recovery.
We provided the flight, and the doctors provided the care—but the true hero of this story is a father who fought against impossible odds for his daughter's life.
These are the days that keep us flying.
