Girl, 4, receiving treatment in L.A. faces life-threatening risk of deportation to Mexico

The family of a 4 -year -old girl suffers from a severe medical condition, which has been legally lived in the United States for two years, in a struggle to save their daughter’s life since she ordered a return to Mexico, where the life rescue treatment she needs is not available.

On the surface, Sofia, who is a pseudonym to protect her identity, appears to be a happy, happy little girl, but the 4 -year -old girl was born prematurely and suffers from short bowel syndrome, a condition that does not allow her body to absorb nutrition on his own.

The young family was allowed to reach the United States through a temporary humanitarian permission, so that Sofia has access to the treatment that keeps it alive.

“She lives as she lives as normal as possible for a girl of her time,” her mother, Disi Vargas, told Ktla’s Carlos Saucedo in Spanish. “Everything thanks to the medical treatment you receive in this country.”

Sofia requires intravenous feeding for 14 hours a day, and the family travels from Beckerfield, where her parents now live and work to the Children’s Hospital in Los Angeles every six weeks for treatment.

“This type of treatment is not present in my country,” her mother explained.

With the Trump administration interrupted immigration, the medical protection of Sofia was canceled, and the family ordered to leave the United States alone.

“They also canceled work permits for the child’s parents,” said Gina Amato, a lawyer for the Immigration Project in the General Adviser.

The family, with the help of their lawyers, is fighting the deportation notice because medical experts say that stopping a Sofia treatment endangered her life at a very danger.

“Doctors at the Children’s Hospital in Los Angeles said that the child’s treatment has been interrupted, and she will die within days,” Amato explained. “It is not a speculation. It will die within days.”

The family strongly hopes that the courts will intervene and allow the 4 -year -old and their parents to stay, so that they have an opportunity to fight in life.

Her mother said: “I am grateful because immigration officials gave us permission to come to the United States in the first place.” “But her condition is not temporary.”
