I’d wanted to surprise my mom, but she has high blood pressure so I told her I was coming. She was standing in the doorway when I arrived. She held me for the longest time. Everything had changed.

A television not even one with knobs. It had a real remote. We stayed up all night talking. I told her all about Spain. Eventually I was able to bring her here. We live together now.

A crowd had gathered. And that’s when I decided to leave. I explained to my son that I’d be home soon. Then I crossed the border into Colombia and took a flight to Spain.

It’s enough to buy them food and medicine and anything else they need.
