Kaitlyn’s mom, Stacie, was diagnosed with HELLP Syndrome at 25 weeks and was sent to Roanoke. Kaitlyn was born 4 days later at almost 26 weeks weighing 1lb and 12oz, her lowest weight at one point was 1lb 8oz. After a 3 month stay in the NICU, Kaitlyn came home a perfectly healthy baby girl.
“The Ronald McDonald House was amazing to my family it gave us somewhere to stay the entire time so we could be close to our daughter and not have to worry about anything as we live 2 hours away. We met amazing people along with staff. We will forever be grateful for the Ronald McDonald House,” stated Stacie.
Kaitlyn is now 16 years old, honor student, and athlete in both Basketball and Volleyball.
