FAMILY PROFILE
Scroggins
Home: El Dorado Springs, MO
(Cedar County)
My pregnancy had been high risk since the beginning, and given my medical history, we had every reason to believe that once labor began, I would need to be very close to a hospital. Our home is nearly 90-minutes from the hospital, so in May of 2019, at 35-weeks pregnant, we were advised to stay in Springfield to be close. Luckily, our social worker at Cox was able to find a room for me at the Ronald McDonald House so I could remain just minutes away from the hospital. We are so thankful for the room we were given at RMH as labor began just a few days later and we struggled to simply make it the few blocks to the hospital. Although Barrett was born at 35 weeks, he was a strong, healthy little guy who was able to come home just three days later. We will forever be thankful for the kindness and welcoming spirit we experienced at the Ronald McDonald House.
