Despite her condition, Becky took charge. She not only found housing for Olga and her family, but also helped with everything else they need. I asked myself, how could this woman do so much when she had such diff iculties of her own?
Becky got the children enrolled in a bilingual program and was able to f ind the mother a job close to home. When winter set in, Becky would go home from work, start dinner, check on the children and then call Olga's mother to see if she had a ride home from the hospital. If she didn't, Becky would bring her home.
