the fish in the pantheon of the great tennis certainly he's one for the ages. of the top. 10. starts july 10th on g.w. . 2000 kilometers long between them the escobar family separated by trumps immigration orders. 2 years ago jose escobar was deported from the u.s. to el salvador where he was born he was forced to leave his wife rose and their 2 children in houston texas they can only visit her site once a year a family torn apart.

all rose has left is her photo album memories of happier days in a bygone past. ever since her husband was deported rose has had to singlehandedly fend for the family but she won't give up. as the 1st flower any guy has ever given me and jose is my 1st and only boyfriend so when i started this book i said you know i have that see how far all go and it's still going. he gave it to me and i told him long. go ahead and put tape on it they can last may and you can see it still is still holding on. the couple has been married for 13 years jose's deportation 2 years ago was

completely unexpected. rose still remembers that call as if it were yesterday are you sitting down like yeah. i need you. to calm down the thoughts that are being me are going to be fine and i said ok jose you're scaring me or the my hero they deported me last night those words. change my friend. rose is a u.s. citizen but marrying jose wasn't enough for him to attain citizenship. walter is 8 years old it's 7 30 in the morning and he's excited it's the last day of school before summer vacation. the teacher kamila king has the same ritual each morning she greets each student personally.

so. i'm going to do it jay let me in on yellow. tomorrow they're off to al salvador to see his dad. janice. let's hint. that haven't seen each other for a whole year i mean they are. you know that the state by the way because there may be a story tomorrow and i hope it doesn't say that the family so whatever whatever technology you have. i guess the homeroom teacher kamila king has known walter since kindergarten ever since his father was deported she says the boy has changed that's something that's really hard for me as an adult to watch listen to him very by the fact that he does not have his father written every single day. and i know that that's not something i can change. rose escobar is on her way to the lawyer

she wants to bring the case before court so that her husband can come home. like many others jose came to the country as an undocumented minor while previous administrations deferred deporting these childhood arrivals trant suddenly rescinded the decision jose was one of the 1st victims of the new immigration policy. hello rose. how are you so nice to see you please come in. as you can see the heap of files on your husband is growing what would you like to talk about today is there any news but those who have been it's all still pending we've requested that the decision to deport him is reversed it's taking longer than we had expected as you know the trump administration demands additional security checks that's slowing everything down and the authorities are overwhelmed but i think that you can have

a criminal record he was working he was paying taxes he had a family in the united states so i was not a birdie the government was very strict at the beginning now this administration oh everybody's a priority until they realize they don't have beds for that many people and they could not arrest as many people so they're exercising it but but not equally so some will get a break so some are arrested some are not and what has created a lot more confusion for everybody. lawyers such as riot consolidate speak of arbitrary treatment and accuse the authorities of inhumane conditions at their detention facilities. on the one i can see especially when you find out that statistics show that this year already 27 people have died in custody when that was not the number of 4 or 5 presidents in all their presidency so clearly there's a problem. to do you know. family for

a brief moment everyone can be together gracie among those who are over there. the mother and her children at the table the father patched in live on the screen all part of their daily struggle do you think i'm exaggerating pictures. yeah. that's all right i can tell what they're thinking about already but did you see it coming a perfect attendance. ok start. common got perfect attendance and she also passed as she mastered all her. her her grades her number and also you constantly startle me man. what's one plus more. then my fingers what's one that's worn.

off to el salvador it's their favorite time of the year ahead of them life 4 weeks of being an intact family. democratic texas congressman al green is waiting for them at the gate he's been fighting for has returned since the beginning he's worried about his safety. there are gangs there and they extort and they also don't take kindly to people who have close relationships with persons who are from america the united states who may be trying to have some way in french of what they see as an asset. free. throws as is lucky as a hospital receptionist she's allowed to take her entire use by keisha not once in

the u.s. that's really the case. shortly before reuniting with their husband she's a wash with emotions. honestly i got mixed emotions right now i'm stress. i'm nervous but i'm so excited like i i want to cry but i'm not going to crack but if i do right it's going to be happy tears because i just can't wait to exit. and to see the kids just like him. on. the san salvador airport finally the moment has arrived. the family mates in a secured area the u.s. embassy and the congressman both have security concerns no cameras allowed.

it's also you know finally back at the family. for now. we're going to lessen my summer saw her how she was more the russians going so big you smart she talked no i think you will see what you know she thought and writes are just getting. doing his homework by himself now it's it's steps that you know go that your children's do that you want to be there for for them and he obviously wants to be there but can't because of the circumstances where i am right now from time to say you could buy to al green he's continuing on to the u.s. embassy where he's sure to to talk about jose escobar case. with you. who are going to achieve information about his situation that i can relate to the people back in my country as well as my kind of fellow congress people they need to

know what's happening here and hopefully with the legislation that we filed we have a bill that will reunite all families somewhere to this one. when or when that would ever happen is still unclear for now the escobar family is more concerned with the rioting in a country that feels foreign to them although they have their roots here. el salvador is one of the poorest countries in latin america with one of the world's highest murder rites. at home with jose's parents in law this is where he stays 2 hours from the capital san salvador at moments like these are especially precious to the escobar family when we were already there i know some of you have a plus to let me see so you can answer to one day. i know. you know you're going to part it isn't one but those are better.

the worst day. when i was a man for gulf war people now. say he considers himself an american and here obvious due to a few days ago he was robbed right on the front doorstep armed gangs live in this neighborhood i was going crazy i could a word because i was stressing i lost so much hair and then dealing with the kids and then finding out how i'm going to pay the bills and then this was like the number one thing that i just asked them please if you don't want me to worry to much to stay inside the house i don't wall because i want the one i want to avoid me or that will ever happen or just right or stay in the house all the time if i go through the stores probably like a block away if. i think. to avoid drawing attention the escobar

family stays within this small neighborhood they want to keep that whole time they have together as carefree as possible this morning i woke up and i and i already said one day is already gone. and i'm trying my best not to think about it or either like you know down on the day another day or trying to just live on the moment right now and just adore whatever we can right now as a family the clock is thank you and i began the day. doesn't matter what time. in just 4 weeks. 4 weeks in which they try to leave their worries behind it could be a long time before they can be together again. take

off like. the race went right down to the wire last season's championship battle was undecided until the rams judgement against. the tyrant love life you. played take a look at the subtle type of. player . play. time. we are many. and aware of from another galaxy the. researchers around the world are on him for. trying to take some of our presidents . messages from the edge of the current players like old and new green jobs through. middle school.

i'm not laughing at the germans because sometimes i am placed on nothing with even german things deep into the german culture. you don't seem to think this grammar you because it's all about who know i'm rachel join me for me to get my feet up both. who were crowned german champions last see.
