My name is Jose Vilchis Valle, and I am a proud United States Marine Corporal. I have served this country with honor, discipline, and sacrifice because I believe in the values of freedom, family, and protecting the place we call home.

Now, I’m fighting the hardest battle of my life not overseas, not in uniform, but right here at home. I’m fighting for my mother, Ursula Valle Borja, to keep her in the United States, the country she loves and has called home for over 20 years. Fighting for her is the least I could do. She supported me when I left for boot camp, when I wore my uniform with pride, and when I promised to protect this nation.

Monday August 4th, she was wrongfully detained by immigration authorities. The fear and uncertainty have torn through our family. My youngest sister, Valeria, is just 15 — a minor who still needs her mother every single day. My other sister, Mia, is 19, and like me, she can’t imagine life without our mom’s love and support.

To make things even more urgent, my mom suffers from serious medical conditions, including a recent brain aneurysm. She needs care, stability, and her family not to be left in a detention facility, far from the people who love her most.

I have fought for this country, but now I am pleading for help from the country please. Immigration battles are expensive, and I cannot do this alone. We need funds for legal defense, medical support, and every step necessary to keep our family whole.

Please if you can, donate to help us bring my mother home and keep her in the United States. If you can’t give financially, sharing this story means the world to us!

With gratitude,

CPL Jose Vilchis Valle, U.S. Marine

& Family.

Un Marine de EE.UU. luchando por su madre: nuestra única familia

Mi nombre es José Vilchis Valle, (CPL) del Cuerpo de Marines de los Estados Unidos, y hoy no escribo como militar, sino como hijo desesperado.

Mi madre ha vivido en este país por más de 20 años. Ella lo dejó todo para darnos una vida mejor, enfrentando cada dificultad con valentía. Yo y mis dos hermanas, Mia de 19 años y Valeria de solo 15. Nuestra familia entera depende de ella.

Hace poco sobrevivió a un Derrame cerebral y todavía enfrenta serios problemas de salud. Ahora, se enfrenta a la amenaza de ser deportada, arrancándonos de nuestro único pilar. Valeria, mi hermana menor, aún es menor de edad y no puede imaginar un día sin el abrazo y cuidado de mamá.

Yo he servido a este país con honor, creyendo en la libertad, la justicia y en que las familias merecen estar juntas. Hoy necesito ayuda para que esas mismas promesas se cumplan para nosotros.

Estamos recaudando fondos para cubrir los gastos legales y luchar por su derecho a quedarse en el único hogar que conoce. Cualquier ayuda, grande o pequeña, nos acerca a mantener a nuestra familia unida.

De todo corazón, gracias por leer nuestra historia y apoyarnos en esta batalla.
