Re: free airfare to Iowa???

There is a commercial airline that will pay for you and the baby. Not sure if

they'll pay for the other 2. Its called Miracle Flights for Kids. Call me and

I'll give you the #.

Hi Carol,

Have you looked into Northwest Kid Cares program? They will fly you

out once for free. We are actually using their services next week to

go to Iowa from San Francisco. It takes some time to get approval (a

couple of weeks) so I'm not sure if it will work for next week, but

you could try? You need to submit the application, and request a

letter from Dr. Ponseti (I emailed Joyce, his secretary, to have them

fax a letter to NW).

The website is

Hope this helps,
