Living on Charity
The incredible story of Dee Dee and Gypsy began to attract media attention. Soon, they started receiving thousands of dollars in donations from charities and were even sponsored to take a trip to Disney World. Dee Dee found in those “blessings” a way for them to get by, and Gypsy, helpless and wheelchair-bound, had no other choice, but to hold on to her mother to survive.
Inseparable
Dee Dee and Gypsy were always together. They always appeared happy and inseparable. In Gypsy’s own words about her relationship with her mother, they were “a pair of shoes … Never good without the other.”
