🎉🎉🎉MEET US MONDAY🎉🎉🎉! We are excited to have you get to know one of our former guests Kristin LaMotte, (husband Matt) and her family! They are from Pensacola, Florida!
How did your family find Houston Haven?
I was lucky enough to stumble upon Houston Haven while researching places to stay while I received treatment at MD Anderson in Houston. We knew we would need to move to Houston over the summer while I did radiation treatments and would be there a minimum of two months. Everywhere we looked was going to be over $10,000 and it financially did not make sense for our family at that time. Once we found Houston Haven, the stress of having a safe place that we could stay as a family while I received treatment was a ton of weight off of our shoulders
How were you blessed by Houston Haven when you stayed in Houston?
Because we traveled from across the country with our two boys, my husband and I tried to treat our time in Houston as an adventure for our family. Having the volunteers to bring dinners by a few times a week or provide cool opportunities for our boys while we were there took so much stress off of my husband and myself. The hospitality showed our family really made an otherwise scary situation into something that was comforting and allowed me to focus on getting better without worry
What would you tell someone that might be interested in getting involved with Houston Haven?
Involving yourself in Houston Haven is a win-win situation for all! Not only are you providing service and fellowship to people who really need it, even the smallest gestures that you can do for people who are facing treatment, allows them to focus on really healing. That is a true blessing!
Please join us in praying for Kristin and her continued recovery and treatment!
