Samaritan Aviation’s Post

When we picked him up 8-year-old Donovan, he was suffering from cerebral malaria and in and out of consciousness while experiencing seizures. While in the hospital, we spent a lot of time by Donovan's side, along with his family. When he regained consciousness and began to recover, we were able to share the gospel with him. Before he and his mom headed home, they stopped by our gate to visit us, making our hearts feel overjoyed for his recovery.

This is Quintina and she was experiencing symptoms of pre-eclampsia while also suffering from malaria and high blood pressure. She had a difficult labor that lasted an entire 3 days. Unfortunately her baby passed away a few days after she gave birth. Quintina had to stay one more week at the hospital before she was released to go home. While we are heart broken with Quintina for the loss of her baby, we are grateful that she lived through this tragic event in her life. Please keep this mother and other patients that experience devastating outcomes in labor, in your heart and prayers.

Ruth was cutting a Sago tree when it fell on her leg. She broke her right femur and spent about 6 weeks in the hospital waiting for her bone to heal. In cases like Ruth's, we use this time to take part in God's love through action, with the ability to pray and share the gospel with her nearly every day.

Surrounded by members of his village, 16-year old Salmon received antivenom after a snake bite the night before. We are grateful for Dr. Peters from Boram Hospital, who flew out with us to administer the antivenom. When we transported Salmon and arrived at Boram Hospital, he was monitored for adverse reactions to the antivenom. With the Grace of God, he was discharged the next day. We feel blessed and honored for the opportunity to serve the children of Papua New Guinea, and we pray to continue making life changing impacts in their lives.

We flew in Sylvia when she was experiencing high risk pregnancy complications. Thanks to the amazing doctors and nurses at Boram Hospital, she had a successful delivery. Silvia and her baby were discharged a short time after. This story is a powerful reminder of how Samaritan Aviation is making an incredible impact on saving lives in the remote communities of PNG.

This is Geraldine, an unwell young girl we picked up in the town of Gavamas. She is battling tuberculosis and fighting to gain her health back. Please be praying that Our Heavenly Father will give the doctors at Boram Hospital the wisdom and ability to help heal and strenghten every patient like Geraldine.

Thanks to our generous donors and supporters, we were able to bring Medlin Solomon to Boram Hospital. She was suffering from appendicitis symptoms in pregnancy when we picked her up in Angoram. Your financial support and prayers make these life flights possible! Thanks for your continued partnership!

We picked up this young boy, Brian in Amboin. He was suffering from a broken femur and was in a great deal of pain. We were able to quickly transport him to Boram Hospital, ensuring he received the medical care required! Praise God for allowing us to serve children like Brian and reach the people of Papua New Guinea in the most remote parts of the islands jungles.

Meet James from Wom. He was suffering from TB when we picked him up in Angoram. With your support, we were able to transport James to Boram Hospital where he was able to receive the necessary medical attention he required. Thank you for supporting our mission to bring hope and access while saving lives in Papua New Guinea.
