Testimonials

"Our 10-year-old had to have 6 weeks of radiation for brain tumors 5 days a week for 6 weeks. Your room provided us with a home here at the Ronald McDonald House and we are so appreciative of the room you have provided us."

"This allowed us to be close to my then 4-day old baby. We were so emotionally checked out and had no idea how we would be able to drive to Loma Linda every day to visit our sick newborn, but we were blessed with this once in a lifetime experience that allowed me to meet other residents that were also going through a time like us. I truly appreciate the love and support."

"Being able to stay close to the Hospital while my daughter healed was so comforting and made it possible for us to attend to both our children. My husband and I were able to trade off-one at the hospital with my daughter and one here with my son."
