Ellie’s Story

Just days after welcoming a new baby, the Mudge family’s world shattered, when their eldest daughter Ellie, was diagnosed with cancer.
 
Throughout their journey, Ronald McDonald House became a lifeline. From the very first hospital admission, the Mudge family were provided with more than just accommodation – they were given a home where they could be together as a family.
 
Having her parents, grandparents, and siblings close was vital for Ellie’s mental health and for her parents, who were juggling newborn life, hospital stays, and trying to maintain normalcy for their middle daughter.
 
We used to be one of the lucky ones. Now we understand just how important Ronald McDonald House is. They provided us with a home, and a safe, enjoyable place to be through the darkest of times,” Aimee her mum, said.

Tobias’ Story

At just four months old, Tobias was rushed from Cairns to Townsville. What was thought to be teething ended up with him fighting for his life with meningococcal disease.

His parents, Katie and Stephen, spent 169 nights at Ronald McDonald House while Tobias underwent life-saving treatment. The House gave them meals, a bed, and the comfort of staying close together.

Without Ronald McDonald House, we wouldn’t have made it. It kept our family together and gave us one less thing to worry about”, Katie said.

Today, Tobias is growing stronger, but it’s the support behind him that makes the difference.

A single cup can help keep families like Ellie and Tobias’ stay together. Your coffee isn’t just coffee…it’s care, comfort, and hope. Make it count at McDonald’s.
