A few days ago, a Colombian newscast released the surprising story of a girl of only 15 years old who was able to get off the streets and her addiction to narcotic substances. she is now influencers and seeks to help others who are on the streets.
Despite the fact that she left her home to settle in the streets, her family did not lose hope that she would recover, especially her mother, who did not give up and fought lovingly to rescue her. In the end, the help of strangers represented a new opportunity for her.
Valery Córdoba is a girl originally from Medellín, Colombia, and like any teenager, she led a normal life, until she got hooked on drug use. Prey to a very strong addiction, she went to the extreme of leaving her home to live on the streets.
In an interview with Snail Newsthe young woman recounted that she spent three hard years in the most dangerous streets of Colombia and that she came to think that she could never get out of there.
It’s hard, but the good thing is knowing that I could. In other words, only with help and only because of a video can I be where I am at the moment. It feels so good, it feels great to know that, man, I made it.
Her mother told the same news outlet that she walked all the streets looking for her daughter, because she never resigned herself to losing her. However, one fine day Jonathan, a young man who is dedicated to helping people who live on the streets, appeared in his path, who managed to convince Valery that he could change his life. The man also recounted how this experience was.
We were able to take her through a totally involuntary process, with the clear consent of her mother, and thanks to God and to many people who expressed solidarity with this case, we were able to take her completely against her will to undergo a resocialization process.
Fortunately, everything went well and Valery has been away from drugs for six months. In addition, she has started a new life as tiktoker, with more than 170 thousand followers. However, the most important thing is that she is now dedicated to helping others who are on the streets, because she is convinced that if she was able to get ahead, others can too.
