Eunice and Dylan’s mother was only 12 years old when she ran away from home to pursue the dream of finding work in Guatemala City. Sadly, she got caught up with friends that did drugs and she soon became addicted. She moved in with her aunt once she had children, since the fathers of her kids didn’t want anything to do with them. She would leave them with her aunt for days at a time, and she was often found passed out on the streets. An organization offered to take her, Eunice, and Dylan into their care to help her get off drugs and get an education, but it was short lived since she preferred living on the streets. The organization reported the situation to the judges, and the children came to Casa Angelina. They are thriving, growing healthy, and love playing with the other children. Their mother has since returned to the organization for help in getting off drugs and having another chance at turning her life around.
