A mexican immigrant whose destination was to cross the border into the United States was thwarted by not what most would think by the border patrol, but by the tragic accident of a mother and child out on a Camping trip gone wrong.
"Manuel Jesus Cordova Soberanes" had only 50 miles left in his journey to cross into the United States but seen a boy of 9 yers old all alone in the desert. Knowing something wasn't quite right about the scenario he approached the boy who had scrapes and cuts with his dog and a side view mirror in his hand.
The little 9 year old boy took him to the edge of a cliff and "Manuel Jesus Cordova Soberanes" seen first hand why the boy was all alone with his dog.
Authorities said Christopher and his mother, 45-year-old Dawn Alice Tomko, had been in the area camping. Tomko was driving on a U.S. Forest Service road when she lost control of the van, which landed 300 feet from the road.
All though "Manuel Jesus Cordova Soberanes" and Christopher spoke different languages he was able to care for the boy till hunters found them and the border patrol took custody of both and christopher was given to relatives.
Manuel is a father of 6 children and was simply trying to feed his 3 kids with a ex wife and his 3 kids with his girlfriend, by finding work in Arizona.
He is to be awarded a ceromony for saving the boys life by the State of Arizona.
Illegal immigrant or not this is the type of compassion that should grant a man and his family automatic rights in to the country so many die to get into. If it were my choice i'd give "Manuel Jesus Cordova Soberanes" his American citizenship and his family if he so choose to come to the U.S and make his home.
Thanks to manuel and his compassion, christopher can live to see the compassionate people that are brought up in this world and how just cause people may speak different languages or be of different races we all are the same and want the best for our families and friends.
