My First Place
Seaside Family Room
S4 • E10
Linda and Mark Otto have endured more struggle than your average newlyweds. Linda met Mark when he was battling liver disease and waiting for a transplant to save his life. She stood by him for three long years as his health deteriorated. Then a donated liver became available and gave Mark a future — with Linda! The couple got married and bought their first place, just outside of Detroit. Designer Erica Pedrosi wants to design a seaside family room for the couple to remind them of San Diego where they met and fell in love.
