They are nice places for those that qualify. Brent's house is for cancer patients and mostly if not always for kids only. It's just around the corner from Children's Hospital in Denver.

Ronald McDonald is just for kids getting treatment at one of the Hospital's and their family and is pretty much across the street or 2 blocks away from Denver Children's.

The Inn at PSL no longer is there, it was torn down a few months ago. There is a hotel but you have to be seeing a doctor that works at PSL or St. Joe's. There's also a place called St. Christopher's House near St. Joe's. But again you have to be a patient at St. Joe's or PSL. http://www.exempla.org/care/lodging/ Neither were free. St. Chris' doesn't discount and costs about $45.00 a night.

The Angel Flights are in small planes & often tough on the stomach and in bad weather the flights are canceled. Very risky if one has to be someplace for appointments or surgery. Also you often have to provide proof of need. Tax return or pay stubs of yourself or spouse.

A great thing if you have the time and no money to get some place. But they are getting very picky right now on who gets picked for such flights.
