This is the true and inspirational story of their journey out of poverty and the many miracles they received along the way. In the spirit of giving back, they adopted and reunited five siblings separated in foster care. And for their new children they fought for resources in mental health and child welfare with the same tenacity they had fought for Becca in the medical world. Other’s said their journey was impossible, but they proved them wrong. This is the uplifting story of their journey, and the opening of their home and hearts.
