My Story

I will start by giving you thanks for taking the time to read my update. I walk for fifteen minutes to arrive to the feeding program. I am Nissi Guisell Jimena but everybody affectionately calls me Flaquita. I am 5 years old and my birthday was in May. I am not attending school yet because I am too young. In my free time, I like to draw, paint, run and play dolls.

The people who live in the house are my parents, siblings, grandfather, aunt and me. My father works as a mason. He did not have job for a short time but my grandfather helped us economically because he works as a jeweler. My mother was working as a domestic employee but she was suspended due to the current situation. We are members of the Christian Church; we are watching the services on TV. I am grateful to God because we all are in good health. In spite of the hard health situation that we are currently facing in our country, our Lord has been taking care of us. We trust in our Lord's mercy and that He will put His healing hands over all people who are suffering during this pandemic. I would like to receive a letter from you and have the opportunity to share our life experiences with each other.

Thinking of you!
