Surviving!

This is Jn. Herson Polynisse, he is 15 years old and has learned to survive like so many other Haitians.
We found this little house on the side of the hill just up the road from Lifeline.

We asked John was he living here alone and he said "Yes, my Mother is dead and my father has another family and does not want me." We asked John how he was eating and he said he eats at Lifeline but sometimes he does work for people and he is able to buy something to eat. He is a small framed boy for 15 years old but already providing for himself the best way he can.

  1. I can't imagine how this little boy lives in such a pitiful little house.
