If you ever want to scream, its over this story of a 7 year old being treated with a bone marrow transplant for neuroblastoma. They were referred to Atlanta because this procedure is not available in Barbados.

It takes a long time for the chemo to wipe out the WBC and then to have the bone marrow transplant. Well, their visas expired. This child is here and allowed to stay, she is only 7 and critically ill. In a foreign country. But the feds say mom must return home.

30 million illegals here causing mayhem yet they cry about breaking up families. The difference? This child is not Hispanic.

[quote]A mother whose daughter is suffering a rare form of cancer at an area hospital could be asked to leave early next month.

Niamh Stoute, 7, is being treated for a rare form of cancer called neuroblastoma at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta's Aflac Cancer Center. She is in Atlanta from Barbados. While U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement officials extended her visa to allow her to remain in the country for treatment, they have given her mother, Petrah Gooding until Sept. 2 to return home.

Barbados resident Petrah Gooding brought her 7-year-old daughter Niamh Stoute to Atlanta in November to be treated for neuroblastoma at Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta’s Aflac Cancer center.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement extended Niamh’s nine-month visitor’s visa to allow her to continue receiving treatment, but Gooding was told she would have to leave her daughter’s side on Sept. 2.

“I’m at a loss for why they would approve an extension for my daughter and not for the mother who is taking care of her,â€
