Chef-owner of San Antonio's vegan Urban Soul Market closing business to care for sick child

Tia Rodriguez, chef-owner of Urban Soul Market, is temporarily closing her plant-based ghost kitchen and catering business so she can focus on caring for her child, who was diagnosed with sickle cell disease last October. The self-taught vegan chef announced the move Sunday in an Instagram post, saying her attention is now on finding a cure for her son Kaleb, who's experienced a "complete loss of leg functionality" due to his ailment. “We will be stopping all events, pop ups, catering and ghost kitchen efforts in search of a cure to save his life at this point,” the post reads.
