Contract job for the hospital there, we had a strikingly handsome young man brought in the ambulance, severely injured having fallen to the ground of the U.S. side of the fence. It was so maddening. His visions of bringing home good money to his family dashed in a tragic accident.
I said then that fence should not be there, I meant it then, and I mean that doubly so now.
Powerful images, Xipe, Gracias por compartirlo.
