She came to the USA with her husband ( my grandpa). Her daughter, ( my mom ) and her mom ( my great grand mother), my mom was about 18 when she left.

Why they came to the USA was because in Cuba there was a dictator named "Fidel Castro" and so they left because under Fidel's dictatorship they were poor and miserable and had no freedom so they moved to the USA because this is a liberty country.

She was happy to be leaving the communism of cuba but, a little scared because it was a new country with a different language that they did not know because in cuba they spoke spanish ONLY.

She  had to adjust to many things but one of the main things was the language. In cuba they only spoke Spanish but in America they spoke English. So they had to learn a new language. Also she had to adjust to a new job because in Cuba she was a biology professor at a University but in the USA she had to work first at a hotel for about 2 years and later she was helping other families at Miami Children and Family.
