Letter from the family:
It was a complicated decision we took to decide to come live in Tijuana, because we didn’t know anyone. We had to make this decision for the well being of our kids and ourselves. We want to give them a better future. We suffered many economic hardships and the lack of heat from a home. We didn’t want to repeat these same patterns for our kids. We want to be able to give our kids what we didn’t have. So my husband had to take the first step and he came here alone with a little bit of money to be able to eat for two days. Thank God he found some people who gave him a place to sleep for a couple of days. Thank God he found a job but like many people right now struggling to find a place to rent. (Also it is very expensive). He eventually found a place to rent and he started saving to be able to bring us to Tijuana. After a few months we were asked to give the house back. We had to sell many things and even borrowed some money to have the down payment for the land where we are actually living. Because I am a diabetic mom I have not been able to find a job in any factory. It is very frustrating to not be able to help my husband economically and to complement this we don’t have the financial resources to send our youngest son to preschool. We also don’t have anyone that we trust enough to be able to leave him with them. With much sacrifice and work my husband was able to make a small room made of wood. Because we didn’t have money to pay someone to make it he made it with the help of my 14 year old son. It is good to keep us out of the heat of the sun during the day and to sleep in but when it rains it leaks inside. In this little room we cook, eat, sleep and in one of the corners we shower. We always have the faith and hope that this can change. Thank You for your great work, May God bless each one of you.
