Brittney and Matt McLaughlin were overjoyed to welcome triplets in January 2019 at a hospital near their Mississippi home. Shortly after birth, doctors discovered that one of the babies, Miller, had amniotic band syndrome which was causing major circulation issues and had prevented her leg and foot from properly developing.
At less than 1 day old, Miller was taken to Le Bonheur Children’s via ambulance to receive expert care. Much to her parents’ relief, Le Bonheur doctors determined that Miller would be able to keep her leg. Over the past five years, Miller has undergone six surgeries at Le Bonheur and is likely to undergo more in the future.
Since their first visit to Le Bonheur, the McLaughlins have called FedExFamilyHouse their home away from home. They have found a place of comfort and hope where they can be together as a family while Miller receives the care she needs.
“We are so grateful for FedExFamilyHouse and its supporters,” Brittney and Matt said. “Our stay there provided us with peace of mind, comfort and a sense of normalcy during the single most stressful period of our lives.”
