Ronald McDonald House Fundraiser

[Tartan Tess]

My boyfriends 15 year old son was cruzing on his skate board, down a big hill and the skate board popped out from under him. He was not wearing a helmet.
He was with friends, thankfully, who knew enought to call 911 after he hit his head and had a seziure type episode. He was careflighted and spent the next 3 days in a coma with surgery to remove a blood clot involved. He woke up and kept pulling all the tubes out of him (much to everyones dismay and happiness)
Ronald MacDonald house was there for free for the family to take showers, sleep, do laundry, make phone calls (When your kid is in a coma, who knows what day it is) and the big hospital for us is an hour and a half drive away
We don't usually eat at MacDonalds (I do use their bathrooms on road trips-Thank You) but When ever I see a donation box for this wonderful cause, I put money in it...as I will now.
It is one of those causes you may not know the greatness they do unless your family has needed it. vote for these guys. Even if their kilts are too long.
Thank God for the Ronald Macdonald house. Many parents have used it when the last thing they needed was worring about driving back home to sleep or change clothes etc.
