Jesia Isabela Meléndez Martínez

They have been living here for 9 years, on land that belonged to José's father, his inheritance. The house suffers from a lot of humidity and they live a few meters from the river, which is a source of fear, not only because of the risk of the house collapsing, but also because of lung diseases and the fact that the house is built on a piece of land on the edge of his land.
