Ana is finally home with Olivia. We were hoping to get them out sooner but Ana's husband became suspicious and hid Olivia's American passport when he left on his business trip.
When he came back Ana made sure he thought everything was fine. After a couple of weeks he put Olivia's passport back in the family passport folder he kept in the drawer in the master bedroom. We bought the tickets and Ana fled with Olivia back home while her husband was at work.
The shelter kept their promise and made sure they had space available. They are transitioning now into their own housing.
Without your help they would not have been able to get out of Brazil! Thank you so much! The AODVC Team
