Yeison Lopéz

It´s an endeering look that he gave as he looked back to his side of the valley while his mother gave her cry of joy for the new day.  Sordo y Mudo (deaf & mute) from birth, she is a joy to him and his sense of pride.  It is surprising to see such maturity and joy in a 15 yr old when people assume there to be such paid & sorrow.

Born out of rape and being violated, his mame, deaf & mute mother kept him alive.  Her determination and God-given joy for life keeps her sons heart beating.  Her hard-working spirit keeps him running.  And her cries of life keep him sane.

What am I thankful for?
Where have I come from?
What have others done for me?
