Read the following excerpt from an oral history:

In February 2006, he finally found a ship he was able to get onto with his daughter. He told people that they were Americans and they had to get back because his daughter was very sick and he needed to get her American help. He was so worried he was going to get caught that he and his daughter hide in a corner for 7 days. All they ate on their way over here was a piece of bread. Gill says that he was used to not eating so he always tried to feed his daughter whatever he could find. Finally on February 20, 2006, he arrived in America. He looked down at his daughter and told her, 'Here is your life—you are home now. The risk was worth it.'
