Think of the Ronald McDonald House as a big ol’ honking cheeseburger.  The Big Mac, if you will.  It’s full of rooms & places to sleep & good food & good love.

A Ronald McDonald Family Room is like the cheeseburger in a kid’s meal.  Still tasty, still gets the job done, but on a much smaller & faster scale.

From the Wake Med website:

The Ronald McDonald Family Room is located at the end of the hall past the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU).  The room is for families with children in the Children’s Hospital and is staffed with volunteers seven days a week, 9 am to 9 pm.  With comfortable couches, a microwave, a washer/dryer, a TV and computers, the Ronald McDonald room is a private, relaxing space for family members as they endure a stressful life experience.

Can’t wait to get officially trained as volunteer & help out!  Any Raleigh/Triangle gals care to join me?
