MORE INFORMATION ABOUT HENRIETTA HUGHES.
Henrietta Hughes said she is a former secretary, but on disability after surviving three bouts with cancer.
Their Lehigh Acres home soon went into foreclosure, and they have been forced to live in their silver pickup with two seats, parking it wherever they can. She said they sleep in the truck bed with its cover protecting them from the cold, wind and rain.
Corey Hughes, 37, said they spend days going to job centers, trying to find work. The pair had tried to apply for a state-subsidized apartment, but discovered there was a two-year waiting list.
His mother had been thinking about writing Obama a letter detailing their troubles, but when they heard he was coming to town, they decided to go, Corey Hughes said.
While on a walk around 9 p.m. Sunday, the two found a line of people waiting to get tickets and they jumped in. Twelve hours later, they had tickets to see the president.
Corey Hughes said he wasn’t surprised about his mother’s interaction with the president.
“She wanted to talk to him,” he said. Later, he noted, “If anybody could really help, I guess he could.”
