Esther is the character that I thought had the most impact in the life of Ishmael. If it was not for her I think Ishmael would have not opened up to anyone. He would just have harmed himself, by not speaking. letting everything inside and keeping everything by himself. Esther was a person that did not give up on him and reminding him that it was not his fault. Until he realized it by his own. Later he noticed that she was a person who liked her job and cared about her patients.
Ishmael rehabilitation is working. It was a long process and something new. At first he was used to being alone but now he has relied on people more. Ishmael would hurt his doctors and harm himself. And they would come back say they were okay. There is a moment were he gave up. He started to open up and talk about the dream he would have. The anger he felt having the rebels killing his only friends he had. Ishmael went from a kid that killed without feeling emotion to a kid expressing his feelings. He has used his experience and has spoke about what he went through. Ishmael has worked hard and has touched people with his speech. He knows that his testimony has a lot of weight. It helped him having a change and left his past.
