Looking for Rafael — lost during border crossing 2024

Kwame Mensah United States , Houston ≈ 2024 2781 views
My sister Rafael and I were separated in 2024 during what was supposed to be a routine stop near Houston. That was the last time I saw them. The drought destroyed everything. The fields were dead and so was our hope of staying. Rafael had just turned 17 when it happened. We were caught up in the sudden deportation order carried out in Houston. The thing that haunts me is remembering Sunday mornings when the whole family would cook together. Our last contact was 2025. After that, nothing. Rafael would be around 19 years old now. Last I saw them, they were tall for the family, around 5'10", with an easy grin. I promised myself I would find them before it's too late. If anyone has any information about Rafael, please reach out. Any detail, no matter how small, could bring us back together.
