Family Stories

Meet the Maddox Family

This year, as Ronald McDonald House Charities® of Central Illinois celebrates 40 years of service, the Maddox family is celebrating a milestone of their own. Their son, Scott, was born at Memorial Medical Center on December 20, 1986. Just three days later, their world changed. Scott developed a high-grade fever and infection and was rushed to St. John’s Neo-Natal ICU. Doctors determined he had strep B spinal meningitis. He was a very sick baby.
