WOW: Airlines Refuse to Fly Critically Ill 3-Year-Old to Doctors… So Parents Call Trump

An incredible story involving Donald Trump has just come to light, and virtually no one knows about it because, unlike what almost any politician would do, the billionaire hasn’t used it to boost his public image.
Years ago, now Presidential hopeful Donald Trump’s private 727 took off from Los Angeles and landed in New York City, much as it had for years. But this time one thing was different.
While Trump wasn’t on board, three other passengers were — 3-year-old Andrew Ten and his parents. What led to this trip is a story that’s both heartbreaking and heartwarming.
Andrew was struggling with a breathing condition that doctors in California had not yet been able to identify. Wanting the best care available for their son, the Tens decided to fly east and meet with doctors in New York.
Remarkably, however, commercial airlines refused the family due to the oxygen tank, suction machine, adrenaline syringe, and other medical equipment Andrew needed to endure the flight.
Running out of ideas, the Tens decided to try a one in a million shot. They reached out to Donald Trump and asked for his help.
The real estate tycoon jumped into action immediately, offering to make his private jet available to help the Tens in their hour of need. (H/T Young Conservatives)
Andrew’s father, Harold Ten, said “Mr. Trump did not hesitate when we called him up. He said ‘yes, I’ll send my plane out.'”
“Donald Trump is a miracle, just a miracle,” said Feigy Ten, Andrew’s grandmother. Both of Andrew’s grandparents thanked Trump profusely. (H/T JTA)
When reporters asked Harold why he thought Trump went to the expense of making his jet available to them, Harold replied, “Because he is a good man. He has three children of his own, and he knows what being a parent is all about.”
Say what you will about Donald Trump’s bluster, occasional rudeness, and brutal sense of competition, it’s clear the man has a heart that’s made of gold, and the fact that he hasn’t bragged on this incredible story to boost his public image shows just how much character he really has.
We hope you’ll share this on Facebook to show a side of Trump that the media never covers — his good heart and incredible sense of decency.
