Arsenault said in a letter seen by The Los Angeles Times that if there is an interruption to administering nutrition to her system, “it could be fatal within a matter of days.”

Sorry, what exact organization(s) approved this and sponsored this foreigner’s treatment and treatment-based entry visa to USA?

I have some desperately ill children relatives abroad who could use those same programs, thx!

Sorry is there a fix to her condition or she just country shops until she her parents find taxpayers or donors to keep her alive indefinitely?

I feel terrible for the girl.

But the reality is that we can't just let in millions of people with severe diseases who need intensive, super expensive, life long care for years while our own children and citizens die from lack of access to affordable healthcare. Mexico needs to take care of their own citizens.

How is it right a foreigner gets unlimited healthcare for free at taxpayers' expense while dozens and dozens of Americans have died simply because they can't afford insulin?

We cannot take in every medical case in need from the entire world that requires unlimited amounts of money, or there will be nothing for our own people.

Seems to me like their 2 year parole was coming up and they were given for that reason alone. It’s not meant to be an indefinite relief from deportation. The humanitarian parole they are now claiming they want requires financial support they don’t have. 30k won’t do it.

Why do the attorneys lie? The dad didn’t raise his voice…people don’t get arrested for “raising their voices.” “In an area he didn’t know he could not raise his voice.”

Lies, lies, lies.

There is a domestic violence case in San Diego Superior Court with the same last name of the mother against the father in San Diego in April of 2024. So most likely this is the incident in question if this is the same couple. I think this is why articles do not name the father.

Unfortunately the quality of journalism has substantially declined in the United States. What happened to investigative reporting? Where are all editors who vet reports before publishing to get the complete picture. Obviously the significant health issues appear to be a compelling case of why the little girl should stay in the United States.

However, I do not understand why so many reports just are relying on the family's attorney without getting all the information when reporting. Of course a family's attorney is going to craft the narrative to be the most sympathetic. This is what bugs me, people are just reacting without having all the information. And truly if they presented all the information I think most people would still believe that she should stay, but by not presenting ALL the information it affects people's perception and leads people to be skeptical and then that turns to becoming callous.

So if I am able to quickly piece this together, why aren't news reports able to do the same. Of course the story is more complicated than being reported.

It appears (short version): The parents applied via the CBP app and the father declared to boarder agents on July 31, 2023 he was in fear because cartel members had kidnapped him. They did not detain the family and were allowed in also based on the girl looking in poor health. It is unclear if they were admitted after claiming asylum and then not detained for humanitarian reasons. She has a short bowel and cannot take in nutrition without a very complex treatment called Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN) which is not available in Mexico and her doctor confirmed she will die without it.

The girl spent over a year in first San Diego Children's hospital and later LA Childrens with Medi-Cal [CA version of medicaid funded by taxpayers ] paying for the care. She has appointments every 6 week now with LA Childrens hospital. The father has a pending charge from when the girl was in San Diego due to raising his voice and causing some type of disturbance. Family gets notice in the beginning of May 2025 they are getting deported and encouraged to self-deport. Family's attorney files paperwork for humanitarian parole on May 14, 2025. Mother sets up a medical go-fund me on May 22 and has raised 36k. DHS official via email to NBC news that reports about the family "actively being deported are FALSE.

Longer Version
LA Times Article Dated May 27, 2025

1. The father is an uber Driver from Colombia and the mother, Deysi Vargas, works cleaning restaurants and is from the Mexican state of Oaxaca. The parents who are not married met in Cancun, where they were working. Just before S.G.V. was born, the couple moved to nearby Playa del Carmen so her husband could work as an Uber driver. The girl spent most of her life in a hospital in Playa del Carmen, Mexico, tethered to feeding tubes 24 hours a day. She has short bowel syndrome, a rare condition that prevents her body from completely absorbing the nutrients of regular food. Doctors told them to relocate to Mexico City to get better care. It is not clear whether they moved her to the hospital in Mexico City.

2. The mother learned that the Biden administration had begun offering migrants appointments with border agents through a phone application called CBP One, so she signed up. Those let in received two-year protection from deportation and work permits.

3. They got an appointment on July 31, 2023. When they went to the boarder at Tijuana the father told agents that he had once been kidnapped by cartel members in Mexico who extorted money and threatened to kill him. They also looked at the girl, whose vulnerable condition was obvious.

4. They let them enter the country and the girl immediately went to Children's Hospital San Diego. At the hospital the father caused some type of disturbance which led to a pending charge and he is undergoing anger management classes (from NBC article posted below)

5. A year later, doctors referred her to Children’s Hospital Los Angeles, which has one of the top-ranked gastroenterology programs in the country.

6. Both of her parents worked, holding down odd jobs, and by September 2024, the family had settled in Bakersfield and S.G.V. was discharged from the hospital.

From Go Fund Me: https://www.gofundme.com/f/support-sofias-lifesaving-care
1. May 22 the mother sets up a Gofund listing the reason as medical and explains they need help with their situation without providing details and has raised $32,000+. I hope the family's lawyer is advising then how this could affect Medi-Cal eligibility.


From NBC News
1. Father has a charge pending in San Diego. The girl's attorney there admitted the father does have a pending charge stemming from "a misunderstanding at the San Diego hospital when he raised his voice" when discussing his daughter's care in an area "where he did not understand he could not be loud."

Attorneys believe the charge will likely "be dismissed because he’s complying with the anger management classes the courts requested of him," they said. "This does not influence the legality of Deysi’s case." It is unclear if this arrest set in motion a notice to deport or if the two year mark was approaching.

3. Family gets sent via email in April of 2025 a Department of Homeland Security terminating their parole and work authorization and told to self-deport.

2. A senior DHS official insisted to NBC News via email that reports about the family "actively being deported are FALSE. This family applied with USCIS for humanitarian parole on May 14, 2025, and the application is still being considered.”

Here is a quote from the family attorney:

“ On April 11, Sofia's mother received a notice from immigration authorities letting her know that their humanitarian parole would be revoked and that the work permits of the parents would be canceled, Amado said.

"They received a subsequent notice weeks later, and a third notice in May, verifying that they are no longer in lawful status and are now vulnerable to deportation. The notices also ordered the family to leave the United States immediately," Amado said.”

They have been ordered to self-deport. Hence why they are going to the press.

We know the MAGA ghouls in this thread that are supporting this child’s death are nasty and hateful. With respect to this case, I’m not sure the current administration has officially weighed in yet.

more name calling, but you can't give a serious answer to the question. no wonder you were creamed in the 2024 election.

Name calling without a serious answer. Doesn’t that describe your cult leader?

From the page on applying for parole:

“An important factor we consider in determining whether to authorize parole is whether the beneficiary will have a means of support while in the United States. We require evidence of an individual who agrees to financially support the beneficiary in the United States. Lack of evidence of financial support while in the United States is a strong negative factor that may lead us to deny parole.”

It’s right there in the application language.

What laws were broken here? The family was in the country legally. While you may not degree with humanitarian exceptions, they were granted one. I do not object to kicking people out who are not here legally, but I am opposed to arbitrarily kicking out people who “followed the rules”. The GOP used to say that “illegal” immigrants should have “followed the rules” and applied like everyone else; this family did. Do you now oppose all forms of travel to the U.S. from foreigners?

DP here. They were granted a time-limited exception under a different administration. That time is up and the new administration is not choosing to renew/extend the exception. Nobles have been broken yet, but if they remain here without status that will change. It was never intended to be an indefinite/permanent exception which is what the mother wants. She wants to stay for rest of the child’s life. And even then she will refuse to leave because she’s “been here so long” and has citizen children or grandchildren or whatever.
