Susan Tom, a single mother who lives in Fairfield, California, lives with her seven surviving adopted children, all daughters (an eighth, a son, died of a congenital skin disorder in late 2004; she also has two grown biological children from her previous marriage). All of the adopted children have disabilities of some kind. Their current two-story home was completely unsuitable for the girls' special needs. The team built the family a new three-story home, complete with an elevator for the three girls who need wheelchairs.
