Family Voices: From the families who’ve stayed here.
“We are so thankful for all that you do at Quantum House. We are always thankful for all of the practical help – lodging close to Paley, the meals, the activities- but this trip in particular was a turning point for Gianna. One night she said, “I love it here because I don’t feel different here.” One morning she came back from therapy feeling discouraged- there was another 9 year-old girl with a similar condition in the dining room- I connected them and they sat at the table for over an hour, just chatting and feeling understood..”
“I am here today to tell you one thing: this place is not just a house… it is a human sanctuary that restores strength to our hearts, balance to our days, and the ability for our children to smile despite the pain… I found families who suffer what we suffer, and teams who work with their hearts before their hands.
I found support that cannot be bought…and compassion that cannot be measured. I found humanity in its highest form. Any other accommodation – no matter how beautiful or luxurious – will not offer me what Quantum House offers:
A community that resembles me… fathers and mothers who suffer a pain similar to ours… and a hand that reaches out to us without expecting anything in return.”
“Quantum House is literally our Home away from home! I don’t think anyone knows how much the generosity of Quantum House has turned our daughter’s life around. The House gave her hope, love, and light that at times made the unbearable, bearable! And for that, our family is forever grateful for the impact the House had on our family and so many more! We love Quantum House!“
“[Quantum House] makes her feel like every other person in the world and makes her forget about being different for a while. Even though we were not there under the best of circumstances and our stay got extended way beyond anytime we imagined it was so wonderful. It refreshed Abigail to remember that it’s not as bad as it seems and reminded her, how to be a leader and role model when she doesn’t always get that chance at home. Thank you for having a wonderful facility and amazing staff, and incredible volunteers to make our five weeks go quickly and allow us to focus on the care she needed and not have to worry about anything else.”
“This has been our home away from home for 72 days so grateful for all the wonderful people we have met and for the families who have come to prepare meals. You really don’t know how much this means to us.”
