Aspen & Tyler's father left when Tyler was born & hasn't been seen since. Their mother worked hard to support them, before dying of cancer 1yr ago. Aspen fought to get guardianship of Tyler & won. She took the changes well, still believing in family & love. Tyler, however, has taken to stealing to cope w/everything. They are now 17 and 12, living week to week, surviving as best they can, by each other's side.
