Family Profile
Family of Shyla Huffman Home: Mountain View, MO (Howell County)
I believe it was in 2016 when I first used
the Ronald McDonald House, day use mostly. Our then foster daughter, Shyla, was frequently ill with respiratory problems stemming from extreme fetal immaturity and C.P. I would stay with her while my husband stayed home with our other four children. During lengthy hospitalizations, the children would come to visit, allowing me to have a meal with them and just be with them while they enjoyed the playroom. Having a place to go and be served a wonderful hot meal was a weight lifted off my shoulders. Being able to leave my daughter in the care of the nurses and take a few minutes for myself to shower, do laundry, sit and cry, or even take a short nap was priceless. The Ronald McDonald House has all you could ask for in a time of need when you are so far from home and need a smiling face to greet you.
