Daniel was detained by ICE agents while on his way to work in Virginia, then passed through several detention centers where he endured harsh conditions before being deported to Guatemala. His sudden deportation left his wife, Marisol, and their one-year-old daughter, Luna, without their primary source of income and support. Daniel and Luna stay connected through daily video calls, while Marisol raises Luna alone without nearby family or a strong support network, facing financial and emotional hardships.
