The recent and still occurring Hurricane Harvey has displaced Millions upon millions of residents in Texas and the South. Our nation's fourth most populous city, Houston inundated by relentless rain and flooding. The surrounding areas and neighboring States are next as this slow moving Hurricane releases Historic amounts rain and water.

As a clinical nursing instructor, I have arranged to tour the facility with my nursing students the past 3 semesters. The house itself is architecturally beautiful, having undergone a remarkable transformation a few years ago. Top designers and architects donated time, resources and expertise in creating a 5 star experience. Think lux hotel, an oasis for pediatric patients and their families who require hospitalization at one of the area hospitals. Common rooms themed to comfort children and provide diversion and relief from the impact that their illness has. Amenities for family members include a gym, meditation room, business center, tv and video game rooms and laundry. The themed bedrooms are beyond words. There are also outdoor patios and gardens. There are always volunteer groups home cooking meals and baking daily on premises to feed weary families. The aromas are intoxicating. Ronald McDonald House brings a sense of normalcy and belonging back to those affected by a child's illness. I highly recommend volunteering your time or considering a donation to this worthy organization, and to my fellow pediatric healthcare providers, please consider this resource for families in need!

When I first arrived, the staff didn't know why I was there yet, and they immediately offered me a meal in the dining hall. I thought that was incredibly sweet. It was humbling to see how many people were there, sad in one sense, but also comforting to know that places like this exist so no one has to go hungry. Everyone is truly welcome. I was then directed to the back parking area to enter through the staff and volunteer entrance for donations. Once I got to the kitchen, a few of the guys came out right away to help me unload the turkeys onto a cart so they could bring them inside and prepare them for Thanksgiving distribution. The entire staff was so kind, helpful, and warm. Their appreciation and the way they carry themselves honestly brought tears to my eyes. I was told the Inn has been around for many years, and seeing firsthand the work they do just reinforced how important places like this are, not only during the holidays, but every single day. I left feeling grateful that a resource like The Mary Brennan Inn exists for the community.
