Jeremiah is 16 y.o. young boy. Most of his life he spent on the streets with his family. Both his parents are homeless. During his childhood he’s seen a lot: poverty, hunger, drugs, fights, and violence. His all family, parents and tree brothers, were living under the bridge. He was deprived of basic things. He did not have decent nutrition and clothes to wear to school. Sometimes he would chose to miss his school, as he was ashamed of his appearance.

This demonstrates harshness in the world by how a loving, faithful, good family has to have one child with a disease that can kill him. Jeremiah is peaceful, Catholic, person who devotes his life to God, but still has a child with asthma.

While he was growing up, his family was very close and his father thought he was learning too much from books and took them away until he actually started school. His mother died of cancer when he was ten years old, it really hurt him. At age ten he also started school at a boarding school. Then, when he was fifteen he went to Oxford University.

It is with great pleasure that I am the teacher chosen to write this recommendation for Josie Tucker to receive a scholarship from the Daniels Program.

Trying to survive isn't always easy when you have physical and emotional monsters after you. Sometimes you have to take drastic measures in order to be alive or stable. A movie that really impacted me was "The Good Lie". It shows how people can go great lengths in order to survive, literally.
