A Mexican mother was separated from her family for one year and two months while trying to regularise her immigration status. Bureaucracy, financial requirements and a hunger strike marked her struggle until the family was reunited. Her story was heard by The Prisma a few years ago. Virginia Moreno Molina “When we talk about migration, we rarely discuss the mental health effects,” says this 34-year-old mother from Mexico, who was forced to experience this during her bureaucratic struggle.
