Margaretta Zuniga tries to keep upbeat about her
role as a full-time single mother to two daughters who can’t walk, talk or use the restroom by themselves.
Espy, 3, and Malana, 4, suffer from DiGeorge syndrome, a genetic disorder that has delayed their development.
“When people ask me what’s wrong with them, ‘why are they sick?’ I say, ‘They’re not sick, they’re healthy. They’re just delayed,’ ” Zuniga said. “I want to, just want them to grow up and get an education. … I don’t want them dependent on a wheelchair all their life. I want them to be little girls and be able to run around.”
