Miranda and Imogen's Story

When Armidale local, Miranda gave birth to Imogen 8 weeks early, she was flown to Newcastle and her family stayed nearby at Ronald McDonald House.

They then spent 3 weeks at the Ronald McDonald House Tamworth before finally taking their new baby home. Miranda knows her family would not have been able to stay together with out help from Ronald McDonald House.

“Its really has given us a home away from home. My husband and 2 daughters can travel to Tamworth and spend the weekend with me. To have them here and have a place for the girls to play that is not a hospital ward makes such a difference.”
