Every day, we go through life not knowing what will come our way.

Today may be a happy day, but tomorrow is not promised to have the same joy experienced in the present.

Challenging times come, and if you are a parent with a family of five to feed and look after, you would have to make ends meet the best way you could.

The mom of four works as a waitress at Chili’s Grill & Bar in Las Vegas, where she makes a living through her salary and customer tips.

Jessica and Robert had four children, all under six years old.

Keeping them well cared for and happy is important for the couple and so they worked hard to make ends meet for their family.

However, things changed for the worse when Robert got diagnosed with testicular cancer that has also traveled to his lungs.

The man had to be admitted to a hospital in Los Angeles for his treatment, so Jessica was given the responsibility of looking after the kids and supporting her husband’s medication.

She would drive back and forth to the hospital, her home, and work to look after everyone and make a living.

Jessica had to sleep sometimes in her car to get some rest because of her tight schedule.
