When I was little I was little I was with my mom, but when my mom got sick, I worked, cooked, started to fish, and also began fighting with my brother. My mom didn’t like that. When my mother died I was brought to Casa Alianza, and from there I continued studying. I fought with my older brother, I tried to avoid him because I’ve never liked fighting with him but he always looked for me. From there I decided to separate from my family. From that point I was in a group of guys that robbed people, and when I was caught stealing they took me to prison. I spent a year there, and afterwards they brought me to a center called Avece. I was there for a week before I was passed to ProNiño. From ProNiño, I began to make something of my life, thank God.
Cuando yo estaba chiquito con mi mamá, cuando mi mamá se enfermó, yo trabajaba y cocinaba de alli iba a pescar, y volverse peleaba con mi hermano y mi mama no le gustaba. Cuando mi mama se murió, me trajo para Casa Alianza, desde alli estuve en Casa Alianza, y seguí estudiando, siempre estando alli en Casa Alianza. Peleaba con mi hermano mayor, trataba a evitar, y como nunca me gustaba pelear con mi hermano pero siempre me buscaba. Y desde alla me seperaba de mi familia. De alli, estuve en un grupo de jóvenes que robaban y después de eso me agarraron robando y me tieron al presidio. Y de alli tuve un año alli, me sali y de alli me tragalaron para un centro llamaba Avece, de alli estuve una semana, y de alli me pasaron para ProNiño. Y fue que logre hacer algo por mi vida. Y gracias a Dios.
