A Once-in-a-Lifetime Chance
Elmer took advantage of the situation without hesitation and was immensely grateful. Again, there were tears of pleasure and hugs between the two. After their initial meeting, Roberta arranged for him to have a place to stay and offered to cover his rent for a few months until he got back on his feet.

In one of her social media postings, Roberta said, “Telemundo located his mother and bought her an all-expense paid to be reunited with her son.” Yes, you've guessed correctly. After being separated for a long time, the two were reunited.
