Congratulations to our very own! 💜 Our house couldn’t be a home with you Sandra Lewis.

On Friday, Feb. 10, four Le Bonheur Children's patients were on ECMO (extracorporeal membrane oxygenation which provides heart and lung support) with only four ECMO pumps in the hospital. An extra pump is always needed in case one fails, but on this day, a fifth patient that was also expected to need ECMO treatment soon. It was imperative to acquire another pump, as soon as possible. Le Bonheur ordered a fifth pump, but it wasn’t set to be delivered for three days.

Institutional Advancement Senior Specialist Sandra Lewis, who serves as the fundraiser and liaison for FedExFamilyHouse, was determined to help. She immediately called the president of FedEx Express, John Smith. Despite being at the Super Bowl that day, Smith called the Akron, Ohio, team where the pump was waiting. The senior director of the Akron location volunteered to find a way to get it to Memphis. He got it on an evening flight and accompanied the pump, watching to make sure it was loaded on the plane.

Upon arriving in Memphis, Chief Medical Officer Rush Waller, MD, was there to receive it. The ECMO pump was on our property the same night. By utilizing her relationships, professionalism and quick thinking, Lewis was able to help solve a critical patient issue.

Lewis and Waller recently received a award for going above and beyond in their care.

Our Story

FedExFamilyHouse's mission is to be a haven of hope, healing and rest for out-of-town families who come to Le Bonheur Children’s Hospital for treatment. Designed with families in mind and using “best practice” examples from sister institutions across the country, the facility offers a home-like setting with an open floor plan, gathering places for family groups, teens and children as well as secluded areas for quiet reflection. FedExFamilyHouse is LEED Gold certified and is one of the country's first sustainable, green pediatric residence facilities. LEED is the country’s benchmark for green building design and construction.

Children and their families come from all over the U.S. and the world to Le Bonheur Children’s Hospital for expert treatment. Each year, more than 2,500 families travel farther than 150 miles for Le Bonheur’s services. Some come from thousands of miles away seeking very specialized care.

Most of these families find themselves without the support systems they depend on at home. Some are lucky enough to have extended family or friends join them. All of them want to stay as close as possible to their child.

FedExFamilyHouse is a comfortable retreat from life in the hospital. FedExFamilyHouse is a landmark that exemplifies corporate citizenship, a genuine sense of hospitality and heartfelt concern for Le Bonheur patients and families.
