Ana’s mother passed away when she was a young girl, and her father sent her to live with a neighbor. She was raised by this lady but never went to school and never learned how to read or write. When she was 16, Ana was taken by a young guy to live with him and become his “woman”. Shortly after, she was pregnant and suffering verbal and physical abuse at the hands of the man and his mother. There were days where they would leave her tied up outside like an animal, and one of those times, a neighbor saw what was happening and called the police. Ana went to the judge, and after doing an investigation into her case, he found that her little sister had been growing up at Casa Angelina. The judge then requested Casa Angelina take Ana in as well. Ana Lilian was a sister that nobody even knew existed until recently. She came to Casa Angelina almost 6 months pregnant and immediately started receiving prenatal care for her baby. She had her healthy baby boy almost exactly 3 months after arriving at Casa Angelina. Ana also met her little sister, Sucely Lopez, and has now developed a relationship with her. She is also learning how to read and write for the first time.
