Worries of a Mother

“He was born with this fish like skin. But it was treatable. We had check-ups on a regular basis and the right medicines. But we had to leave all that behind to find safety here. Now we don’t have access to proper medical care or medicine. We don’t have access to a lot of basic needs.

He is uncomfortable all the time and is hurting. Some spots got really bad and are now just open wounds. But he won’t ever show that he is uncomfortable or in pain. He is always carrying that smile on his face and try to make us laugh when he sees we need it. He’s a strong boy. I just hope that the world doesn’t break that spirit like it slowly does ours.”
