Description: Daisy was five when she first entered Harrison's bustling household. Mother of three children by birth, three by adoption, and a handful of foster kids always coming and going. Harrison had ten children under her roof at any given time. But Daisy was, in many ways, unique. Unlike the parents of most of Kathy's foster kids, Daisy's birth mother wasn't poor, uneducated, or drug-addicted. She just could not take care of her child, and the effects of this abandonment on Daisy were heart-wrenching.
