I'm Jaahdiel Santos

Jaahdiel is an energetic boy who lives with his mother, three brothers, one sister, and grandparents. His favorite color is green, and his favorite food is spaghetti. He enjoys playing with his friends. His mother is a single parent whose income is inconsistent. Jaahdiel’s younger brother has epilepsy, and the medication he needs is very expensive in Belize. This situation has placed a heavy financial burden on the family, making it difficult for his mother to pay school fees, household bills, and medical expenses. Jaahdiel’s father left when he was a baby, so his mother has been carrying the responsibility of caring for the children mostly on her own.
