Stranger Swoops In With Private Jet When Sick Baby Needs It Most

Stranger Swoops In With Private Jet When Sick Baby Needs It Most
Circumstances were looking pretty dire for the Self family's sick baby boy, until a total stranger heard of their situation and flew to the rescue.

 

8-month-old Jett has been fighting a rare form of leukemia at the Children's Hospital in Louisiana with few positive results since he was born.

His parents, Brittany and Tylan Self, having tried everything to aid their baby boy, heard that there was an experimental treatment available at John's Hopkins hospital – 1,100 miles away in Baltimore.

Due to Jett's weakened immune system, commercial flying could be fatal, and the 16-hour drive would be too long.

After searching high and low for a solution, James Davison, the owner of Davison Trucking, suddenly swooped in to save the day – literally.

James heard about Jett's dilemma from Congressman Dr. Ralph Abraham, who served with him in the National Guard. Though he didn't know the struggling family personally, he said he is happy to fly them to Baltimore in his private jet—especially when he heard the boy's father serves in the Guard also.
