Until Dream House and its supporters, medically fragile children had no voice, no options, and no hope. As advocates for them, Dream House is changing the Georgia landscape. Imagine the life of a medically fragile child.
A pediatric nurse for over 20 years, Dream House Founder and CEO Laura Moore identified a rapidly growing a segment of her patient population – the medically fragile child.
  • Medical technology saves children who could not have survived a
    decade ago.
  • This makes life-care for medically fragile children complex and costly
  • The very technology used to save these children must now sustain them
  • Their conditions cross all medical diagnoses
  • What kind of life is in store for them?
Society isn’t yet prepared to embrace medically fragile children in a way that makes their lives worth living. Why?
  • Burdened by caring for a chronically ill child, families must search and beg for necessary equipment, supplies and treatment to adequately meet their child's needs
  • The infrastructure to support their extraordinary care doesn’t yet exist
  • These children end up being abused, abandoned, placed in foster care, senior adult nursing homes, or live out their lives in hospitals
  • Many families cannot adequately care for them
