Trump Admin Deports Cancer-stricken US Citizen Child to Mexico
A Texas family, including a 10-year-old U.S. citizen recovering from brain cancer, was deported to Mexico after being stopped at a border checkpoint. Despite previously being allowed through with medical documentation, authorities deemed the provided letters insufficient, leading to the parents’ arrest and the family’s forced return to Mexico. This decision was made to avoid separating the children and placing them in the U.S. foster care system. The family now faces significant challenges accessing necessary medical care in Mexico for both the daughter and a son with a heart condition, while also struggling with safety concerns in their new location.
