  19. Sickle cell patient flies free

    "It was funny, one of the funniest flights ever," says 15-year-old China Murphy, a Denbigh High School sophomore with a room-filling personality. It was also her first ever flight this summer, when she boarded the single-engine four-seater 1987 Mooney 252 in Newport News to go to Randleman, N.C. For Leesburg pilot Robb Alpaugh, 66, it was one of 21 Angel Flights he's conducted year to date, and one of 40 in the three years since he's been flying for the medical charity.
Murphy, whose given name is KeiVonya, was diagnosed with sickle cell anemia at birth. Both her parents carry the trait, which put her at a 50 percent chance of inheriting the full-blown disease in which red blood cells become rigid and get stuck in small blood vessels. This slows blood flow and oxygen to parts of the body. Murphy has a host of medical problems associated with the disease, for which there is currently no cure.
Her flight took her to Victory Junction Camp, a Richard and Lynda Petty-sponsored summer camp for children with chronic diseases and serious illnesses. Her fellow campers were children and teens with sickle cell and other blood disorders as well as burn survivors. The two previous years that Murphy attended the camp, she travelled by bus. This summer, the camp arranged for an Angel Flight for her and Keshaun Smith. Murphy boarded at Patrick Henry Airport and Alpaugh made a landing in Suffolk to pick up Smith before continuing on to the camp.
