"I never met my family before.... This was so crazyyyyyy .... My first time in Mexico[.] this shit broke my heart connecting with family I never seen before I’ve only spoken to," he wrote. "me being younger not understanding why my Mom left her country to make a better future for us. THIS right here hits home."
