In the letter, written in Spanish, the mother tells her son that she misses him very much and reassures him that what they are going through is temporary and that they will soon be reunited.

“I want to tell you that everything is going very well, I’m sorry for what is happening my son, this separation pains me in my soul, but I want you to know that I have not abandoned you,” the mother writes.

Levis tells her son that they will be reunited and reiterates how much she loves him while talking about all that they will do when they are together again.

“How much I miss you Samir, I want to let you know that very soon we will be together, so you can give me your hugs, I love you! I want to see you and tell you face-to-face that you are my pride, my drive, don’t worry my son, I am doing alright,” the mother wrote.

“I know that you are suffering because I know that you love me….My love, this is temporary,” she added.

In April, the Trump administration announced a "zero tolerance" immigration policy that required federal authorities to aggressively prosecute adults caught trying to cross the U.S.-Mexico border illegally. As a result, thousands of migrant children have been separated from their parents.
