Flight Stories #1352
Curitiba, Brazil > Calgary, Alberta — 157,031 Scene+ points.
When Silvana learned that her sister’s health had begun to decline, her heart pulled her across the distance that separated them. Living in Brazil while her sister received palliative care in Calgary was painful, and Silvana felt a deep need to be with her — to offer comfort, support, and the closeness only family can bring.
Silvana shared that the past year has been especially difficult and that this visit would give them precious time together. Being by her sister’s side, even for quiet moments, meant more than words could express.
Travelling from Brazil to Canada is costly, and with a modest annual income, Silvana knew she could not make the trip on her own. She hoped for a way to spend a month in Calgary, helping her sister through this stage of her illness and surrounding her with care and love.
Thanks to the kindness of Scene+, Silvana’s flight was approved. This journey allowed her to be present with her sister — to sit with her, talk with her, and simply share time together that will bring comfort to them both.
Because of the generosity of Scene+, two sisters will be together when it matters most. Every point donated carries more than a traveller; it carries love, connection, and the gift of family during a challenging season of life.
We are deeply grateful to Scene+ for making flights like Silvana’s possible. Your compassion continues to bring families together across any distance.
