The Hardest 10 Years of Her Life
As any longing mother would do, Kadisha decided that she was going to Nicaragua and wouldn’t come home without her daughter – no matter how long it took or how hard it would be. After their tearful reunion over video, Kadisha immediately sprang into action. She gathered important documents, like Cinthya’s birth certificate, and applied for an emergency passport.

She then booked a flight to Nicaragua, notifying the US embassy about her situation. It took her three weeks to get there, she explained from her room at the Cristo Obrero Children’s Home: It was “the hardest 10 years of my life, and now that I’ve found her it’s like I just want her home. The whole family is waiting for her.”
