In this poignant bilingual memoir, Jess J. Ramirez shares the deeply personal story of his early life, growing up in the small town of Juárez, Mexico, during the 1940s. Born into hardship, Jess's story begins with a life-threatening health crisis as an infant, saved only by the determination and love of his family. His sister Toña's courage leads her to seek medical help in a city she barely knew, and the compassionate actions of Dr. Manuel Noguerola ultimately bring him back from the brink of death.
