My father left Cuba and went to Boston, Massachusetts to do his medical internship.
Meanwhile, my mother, his fiance, was still in Cuba awaiting his return. Her father, Jose Jaime Hurtado, a banker in Camaguey, Cuba, did not want my mother to marry my father because he came from such a humble and poor family.
My mother flew to Boston, Massachusetts, joined my father and it was there they were married.
