Southern Appalachian Ronald McDonald House Johnson City, Tennessee

Family Stories

Myranda, Christopher & Sophie Fleming

I have always heard about the Ronald McDonald House. But never in a million years would I ever dream about staying there until my baby girl was diagnosed with stage 3 Neuroblastoma at 7 months of age.

One month later we would begin our long journey of treatments to help Sophie regain her health.
