When our nephew was born, he was airlifted to Riley Children's Hospital. His parents stayed at the Ronald McDonald House until he was able to come home. Now 2 years old, he is doing better but still has a long road ahead of him. Because of what they've done for our family, a fundraiser for the Ronald McDonald House will be held at the Kmart in Chesterton and the Wal-Mart in Portage on Sunday, July 21st, beginning at 10 am.
