Great Grandmother, 2 Children
Iker
Drawing and playing with friends
Ana is the great-grandmother of Esteban and his younger brother Iker. She came to Casa de Luz in the fall of 2021, when she began full-time care of her great grandsons and was desperate for help. Iker and Esteban are struggling in many ways and need the support and love of CDL.
When we told Ana that her great-grandsons were accepted into CDL, she cried tears of relief that “her boys” would be in a safe place. That they would be learning and growing in the healthy environment provided for them at CDL. Each time we talk to her, Ana cries tears of thankfulness for the help and support that she has received.
Since arriving at CDL, Esteban has integrated well into his class. He has begun to trust us and has really begun to flourish. Esteban’s favorite color is blue, and he can often be found drawing or playing with his friends at CDL.
