Maria is a medically complex two year old little girl. After her sister recently was discharged from a lengthy hospital stay, Maria was soon admitted for a similar complication of the heart. Fortunately, the two little girls have been discharged from the hospital and are living active young lives. However, due to both girls having lengthy stays at the hospital, both parents, who work shifts in a restaurant, had to take off many days at work which cost them their usual wages. The Extra Step compensated this family for the missed time they were at work watching over their two daughters.
