Marina Sorace-Ferreyo FaceTimes her 12-year-old daughter, Kayla, who is living with Marina's parents in Argentina. After 10 years apart, Marina Sorace-Ferreyo came to the U.S. to marry her high school sweetheart, Ken. They had met while he was studying abroad in Argentina and visiting her home of Buenos Aires on a weekend trip. In their years together, they raised her husband's two sons from a previous marriage and had a daughter, Kayla, join the family. When Ken was arrested and sent to jail for tax evasion in 2016, the family had to split up. Marina stayed with in-laws in LA, her step-children went with their mother, and Kayla had to be sent to live with Marina's parents in Argentina. Because Marina wasn't a citizen, she would've been banned from returning to the U.S. for 10 years if she had left with Kayla at that time. Marina felt that if she had left, "then that would be it. Our family would be broken." She has spent these years watching her step-sons graduate, visiting her husband, and video-calling her daughter.
