I joined our flight this afternoon when the plane went to Rock Sound, Eleuthera to meet your plane.
I was really impressed at the professionalism of these two young ladies, and the manner they handled the patient. I am sorry I do not remember their names, but with their actions and chatter with him, I saw a positive change in his attitude and body language. I am sure he is better for having meet them.
My name is H. M. My wife, D. M., was air lifted from Ft. Lauderdale, Florida to Boston, Massachusetts on 10/04/13 using Trinity Air Ambulance International.
Thank you for your time and saving my wife’s life. Getting her out of Florida to a qualified hospital, saved her life. 9 days in the ______________ Medical Center and they couldn’t figure it out. After only an hour and a half in Boston (Brigham and Women’s Hospital) they were removing the teratoma tumor that was causing her encephalitis.

A Florida man survives a brush with death not once, not twice, but three times, and now he’s thanking his emergency responders who flew him to safety.
Erik Norrie has recovered from a shark bite that took place July 29 while he was with his family in the Bahamas.
Norrie lost a large portion of his leg and had to undergo a skin graft procedure. He spent months in recovery and rehabilitation.
He was in Fort Lauderdale on Friday morning to thank the president of Trinity Air Ambulance.
“Pretty hairy situation, nearly lost my life,” Norrie said. “I thought I was going to lose my leg, but thankfully because of Trinity Air here in Fort Lauderdale, they were able to rescue me and get me to help in Miami quickly.”
“When we get to meet some of our patients that we helped assist, that really affirms why we’re here and it makes us feel good, our whole team,” Trinity Air Ambulance President Tor Skroder.
Norrie is no stranger to danger.
The St. Petersburg man also survived two lightning strikes, a rattlesnake bite and two separate monkey attacks.
“No matter what happens, just trust the lord,” Norrie said.
His father, Jack Norrie, is just glad he survived.
“He does a little bit of world traveling and gets himself into some jams on occasion, but, you know, he’s come out happy, so that’s the main thing,” Jack Norrie said.
