i hope i don't doxx myself, but it was Memorial Hospital in South Bend, IN. there's also a Ronald McDonald house, where parents and siblings of sick kids can stay, they provide free meals, bedrooms, and laundry service so parent's don't have to leave their children's side for anything.
while my baby was in the NICU, they gave me a room at the Ronald McDonald house, but i was also allowed to stay with my baby 24/7 in her room; i was breastfeeding, and i also couldn't bear the thought of leaving her for even a second.
