Colton’s Story
Home: Mt. Vernon, MO (Lawrence County) In December of 2016, the scariest moment of our lives happened. At only 25 weeks pregnant, my water broke. I was put on bed rest at Cox South Hospital, and one week later, I gave birth to Colton. For the next ten weeks, he was in the NICU where he was growing strong and healthy until we could take him home. Thankfully, we were able to stay at the Ronald McDonald House during that time. At the House, we had a private room, home-cooked meals provided by wonderful volunteers, and a great staff. The staff members were helpful, kind, and always had a smile on that helped lift our spirits. We couldn’t be more grateful for the staff and volunteers at our “Home Away From Home.”
