I am a single mother.
I must save my son.
My husband beat me.
I left him.
Already he has made his life
with another person.
We have no support.
The gangs know this.
They threatened us.
The gangs are called:
“The Twins”
“Chala”
We made the decision to seek shelter
In the United States.
A friend of mine lives here.
She will receive us
To save my son
To save me.
We left our country in emergency.
We cannot return.
We have much fear.
