JOSHUA, ONE OF OUR LITTLE PEOPLE.

Joshua and his parents

Emilio, a young native of the Nahuatl ethnic group, was 20 years old when he decided to leave his father's home in Tlalnepantla, a community in the municipality of Tamazunchale, to venture to look for work in Monterrey, NL, since it is a huge city where many people from the Huasteca region will seek better employment opportunities. He was hired as a bricklayer and there he met Francisca, a girl a year younger than him, who worked cleaning houses and who is also from Tamazunchale.

They fell in love and decided to move in together. They spent three years and sought a baby, who was born healthy and beautiful. They called him Joshua. Francisca stopped working and stayed at home caring for her baby, until one day they realized that Joshua's stomach was too inflamed, they took him to the doctor and he gave them a terrible news: Joshua had a tumor called Hepatoblastoma, that is to say: a cancerous tumor in the liver. 

Given this diagnosis, they decided to return to their land and bring it to the Central Hospital of this city, since it is the only place in our State that provides oncology for people with limited resources. Once in the hospital, the Social Worker of our institution registered this new patient, made a file and invited her parents to be able to offer them the supports that we granted. 

Joshua is currently one year and five months old and one month in treatment; The pediatric oncologist has high hopes that he will respond well and, in several months, he can overcome the cancer that attacks him. His parents pray a lot for their baby to get ahead and we at AMANC SLP provide them with material things, all the love, understanding and tenderness that both the child and their parents need ...
