Tobias needed his family behind him.

At just four months old, Tobias became critically unwell with meningococcal disease and was rushed from Cairns to Townsville. His family was suddenly hundreds of kilometres from home, facing an unimaginable medical crisis. During 169 nights away, Ronald McDonald House gave them a safe place to stay, meals and space for Tobias’s siblings to remain close. 

“Without Ronald McDonald House, we wouldn’t have made it. It kept our family together and gave us one less thing to worry about.”

— Katie, Tobias’s mum
