Letter from the family:
My name is Patsy, I'm 25 years old, and I've been living in Rosarito since I was 9. Before that, I lived in Acapulco, Puebla, and Nayarit with my mom's family, as my parents separated due to my father's physical abuse fueled by alcoholism. We settled in a small wooden room upon arriving. Communication with my mom has always been strained; she blames me for her unhappiness with her partners and often kicked me out, claiming she regretted having me. At 14, I moved in with my boyfriend, who is now the father of my 9-year-old daughter, Alexa. Back then, I worked in markets until I turned 18, and while living with him at his mother's house, I worked tirelessly, resting only one day a week. I left him due to infidelity when Alexa was two, staying briefly with my mom, who also mistreated her. Witnessing her abuse led me to seek solace in drugs, until my uncle intervened and admitted me to rehab. Determined to improve, I turned to church, completed my secondary education, and pursued various courses. Despite facing hardships, I strive to provide for Alexa. After being kicked out by my mom, I lived with my grandmother until she begged me to return, which I did. Despite a verbally abusive three-year relationship, I finally left my ex when I learned of his infidelity and my pregnancy. Despite his refusal to take responsibility, I chose to keep the baby, now three months along, and aspire to build a better future. I dream of owning a house and continuing my education. I currently take caregiving courses to support us. I hope for justice for my daughter and pray for our home's protection.
