Dear RMH staff and supporters,
On October 16, 2018, my husband Matt and I were offered a room at RMH while our 4-day-old son, Paxton, was fighting for his life in the Duke pediatric cardiac ICU. We stayed until November 5, when he was able to come home after heart surgery.
Since then we have asked for donations for RMH, instead of gifts, for his birthday. We couldn’t do this last year because of COVID, but we hope to be able to continue the tradition next year.
Without the availability of a room for us in 2018, we would have had to drive back and forth to Greenville, NC, every day. You provided us with a safe place to stay and we were able to be with our son all hours of the day and night. We will never be able to repay Ronald McDonald House for the generosity. Thank you so much for everything you did for us while we were in your care.
Much love,
Courney Morris, Paxton’s Mom
