This guy's name was Santiago (Right). Steve and I were hanging out near his house when the rest of the team was visiting the AIDS/Chicken Pox residence. He and his sister, Italia (Below), were adorable and happy to have visitors. Steve gave Italia a Starburst, and it made her day.








La Chureca offered me a strange combination of conflicting emotions and experiences. Although it was most difficult for me to witness these children in such horrible living conditions, it was they who seemed to have the most joy and innocence.
