“We’re so grateful for support from Ronald McDonald House of Denver. They gave us a home away from home!”
When the Konrath family learned that their newborn son, Mikey, had serious heart issues, they knew a long hospital journey lay ahead. At just two weeks old, Mikey underwent his first surgery—but complications led to critical life support and the urgent need for a heart transplant.
In the midst of their fear and uncertainty, the Konrath family found strength and support through Ronald McDonald House of Denver. The House became a place of comfort, allowing them to stay close to Mikey during every step of his medical journey.
Today, Mikey has received his new heart—and he’s growing, thriving and loving life.
