Denis Javier Varela Hernandez spoke out about the status of his wife Sandra, 32, and daughter, Yanela, 2
Yanela became the face of the immigration crisis after a Getty photographer snapped a photo of her in tears
Speaking to DailyMail.com Hernandez said he has still not been in direct contact with his wife Sandra because he does not have a way of communicating
He says all he can do now is wait, and says he is happy that 'they are safer now than when they were making that journey to the border
Sandra was part of a group that were caught by Border Patrol agents after making their way across the Rio Grande river on a raft
She set out on her journey from Puerto Cortes, Honduras to the U.S. at 6am on June 3 and allegedly paid $6,000 for a coyote
Hernandez said he did not support his wife's decision to make the journey with their young daughter in her arms and never got to properly say goodbye
