Becky remembers, “One of her students came in crying one day to school. And he said, ‘My dad is sick, and he can’t get admitted to the hospital.’” Without hesitation, Elizabeth worked on her own time to get the student’s father into the hospital. While trying to help the family after work, she met an uncle of the student she was assisting who would change her life forever. His name is Juan Lazaro Abrego, and before long, Elizabeth and Abrego hit it off romantically.
