I Now Encourage Everyone Who Will Listen to Enroll in EA+

Gaylene B.


Published on August 29th, 2024

We were on a week-long boat and bike excursion in Croatia with friends and neighbors.  The third day on the bike, I was hit from behind by a car traveling about 45 miles per hour.  I was knocked unconscious and suffered abrasions and a brain bleed.  I was taken to a hospital in Sebinek in a different city.  I spent the first night in the ICU and later moved to a surgical room. 

My husband contacted EA+ and they were engaged instantly.  I was released by the Croatian doctor to fly on the 21st of September.  The EA+ medical staff did not agree with flying after a brain bleed and put us up in a beautiful hotel for 3 days so that I did not travel for ten days post-accident.  They also took care of arranging for our trip home in business class where I was able to comfortably sleep most of the flight home.  I now encourage everyone who will listen to enroll in EA+ due to the outstanding service I received in a foreign country during a very stressful time.
