Juan Jose

I just met this little guy two days ago. He was having convulsions every several minutes and Shyrel had said it was difficult feeding him. They only had him in their house for about two days. Elena, a young lady helping them out for a while, had told them that her neighbor had a two year old baby and that she had never even known about him. It is very typical for families to hide such secrets because of shame. They brought him to Steve and Shyrel's home for help. He had had a fever the entire time he was there and it just got worse. They think he probably had cerebal palsy, but unlike Jeferson, he could see a little and probably hear too. He couldn't control his little movements and would sitffen as the convulsions took over his little body. He would have been two years old in October, Shyrel said.




Like I said, I met him on Tuesday, now two days later, he has gone on to be with Our Lord, where he will no longer suffer, and he will even be smiling... I'm sure of it.
