Serena Badia has undergone heart surgery five times. Three of those procedures were back home in Spain where doctors told her she wouldnt live past age 12.
She came to the U.S. with her mother and sister, hoping doctors here would be able to help where the Spanish surgeons failed. Serena, now age 14, has been seeing doctors in the U.S. for over a year as they attempt to rebuild her pulmonary artery.
But her treatment here is in jeopardy after immigration authorities told her family they have 33 days to leave the U.S. or risk not being able to return.
If they don't let us come back to the United States, then I won't be able to get treated, the 14-year-old told ABC News. We don't know what to do because we don't want to be illegal here.

Just when you think Trump has reached the bottom of the barrel, you find out the barrel has a basement. If Republican members of Congress support this action, they are no better than Trump and they all will have blood on their hands.

(54,349 posts)When you meet a Republican who is a vegetarian and actively opposes the death penalty, THEN they can start talking about being "pro-life." Otherwise, it is just another convenient misleading label they like to use, much like "conservative," when they are are not much interested in conserving anything more than the uni-racial nature of several gated communities.

Ill bet other RW grifters like Graham take in millions, too, pretending to care for those children in need.
Maybe clobbering them nonstop is a way to go here. They collect hundreds of millions every year from donations to help children as the support Trumps policy of caging poor children of immigrants and stopping medical treatments of children with serious medical needs.
Then theres Falwells pool boy and fitness trainer who make millions while children suffer under his pal Trumps policies. And where is all that money coming from? Falwells stewardship of Liberty Univ money is similar Franklin Grahams stewardship of Samaritans Purse. All bullshit grifting.
And needy, threatened, and dying children are the ones who suffer.

(82,383 posts)That is not how it works.
We are the ones who claim to be number one in health care, so of course complex cases can't be handled as well elsewhere!
And there is nothing to show we are "supporting" them.
Enjoy your stay.
