US EditionCritically Ill Girl Facing Deportation Could Die Within Days If Care Halted
- A critically ill 4-year-old girl named Sofia, diagnosed with short bowel syndrome, faces deportation from the U.S. In 2025 despite receiving life-saving treatment in California.
- Her family received humanitarian parole in 2023 to seek medical care, but the Trump administration revoked this status and ordered them to leave, risking interruption of essential treatment.
- Sofia undergoes Total Parenteral Nutrition every six weeks at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles, which depends on U.S.-based healthcare infrastructure that cannot be provided if she returns to Mexico.
- Dr. John Arsenault stated in a letter that halting Sofia’s nutrition could be fatal within days, while her attorney Rebecca Brown called this a “textbook example of medical need” with no justification for death.
- The family’s potential deportation highlights the conflict between immigration enforcement and urgent medical care, suggesting that continued legal protection is critical to Sofia's survival.
