He also had his sisters and the support of teachers and role models to guide and help him. Krishaun the other young man in the documentary all the difference, had many hardship in life, His mom is a single mom and worked hard o support her family.

My nephew Michael has been a blessing in our lives since the day he was born. Even though the circumstances were less than happy. My sisters husband died when she was 2 months pregnant with Michael. That day she got a call saying they couldn 't find Mike, her husband, and she needed to get out there. You can only imagine everything she was feeling as she drove to the his work and what awaited her there was more than enough to last her multiple lifetimes.

I struggled to recovery from his death but decided I would get an education in his honor. Life curveballed this desire when I moved to Maine. My family bought a farm which needed significant repair work. The repairs took almost four months to complete which delayed my schooling. My mother also had a stroke which left me with my duties on the farm and my responsibility to help her recover.

One teacher mentions that his mother died when he was only two months old (2). There are no facts in the story to support this, but having a mother growing up is vital.

He had graduated from high school and was suppose to move back to America, but decided not to live with his grandmother. It made sense since he was selling drugs and from what he told Daniela; he would make more money in America. Not wanting him to leave her behind, Daniela went with him to America.

Also I saw the difficulty that my parents were having for not going to college or having a low level of education. Growing up my parents started to tell me “ that if I want to be successful you have to go to school”, and still I would not listen to them because to me it was absurd to keep going to school after high school. Life as a child is very different then the life of a teenager, young adult, adult or someone that is about to retire.
