Gabby Puckett grew up under the oppressive weight of Cuban communism.
Her father was forced to buy meat off the black market to feed his family. Gabby was fitted with second hand braces. Yes, you read that right..second hand braces. She tasted the metal and oil as they were placed on her teeth.
Gabby remembers the hospital as a place of death, not a place of healing.
For many years Christians were not allowed to celebrate Christmas. The Cuban government dictated every facet of life.
Socialist organizations bring American students to the country to show the happiness and success of Cuban students in the school system. It is a false narrative. They are brought to the best school and children are told how to behave.
The Cuban people are fed lies about America. They are told the government wants to take over their country. They are told Americans are plotting the Cuban downfall.
Gabby and her family longed to escape the chains of communism. In order to do so, they obtained Spanish citizenship without going to Spain, courtesy of their Spanish descent.
Gabby's family fled to Spain and, from there, made their way to the United States through legal immigration channels.
Gabby is thriving in America with her husband and new baby. She calls capitalism "perfection" and is astonished that Americans do not comprehed the beauty of the system.
