Well there’s one good thing about the V.A. hospitals; No illegals crowding us out.
Nope, she is Married.
Met her many years ago when she came into a Business where I worked. Also met another Gal who was one of the original Cast Members.
They were both Cute but they weren’t all dolled up like they are on the Show.
Correct. However, Dialysis may not be necessary if the type 2 Diabetes is no longer in effect.
It may be too late to save her kidneys.
Then again, what is the harm in trying?
To many tortillas at home in Mexico, but the sucker US Taxpayers will pay for her.
Yet...
Somehow the left and open borders wing of the GOP will find a way.
After all, it’s for the chil’run.
Cuba has FREE medical care. Go there criminal illegal.
Might be too late. A ketogenic diet can be hard on the kidneys.
Wonder how much this woman weighs most people with type 2 diabetes are over weight unless of course they are elderly which is not the case here!!!
go home!!!
If you are in ESRD brought on by a chronic condition like diabetes, the likelihood of your kidneys recovering even if you’re able to rid yourself of the underlying disorder, is miniscule.
In acute renal failure, where failure is brought on by a relatively sudden event, like a drug overdose, or physical injury, or a viral or bacterial infection, the kidneys may bounce back. Or not.
But diabetes that results in kidney disease causes chronic kidney disease, and the damage done is usually permanent.
If you have ESRD (GFR < 15), you may be able to hold off from dialysis until GFR falls into single digits, but barring a miracle, you will need dialysis.
Folks with chronic kidney disease (CKD), must keep their protein level low. I don’t know how that would affect a ketogenic diet.
Thank you for a view from a “local”. I guess it’s easy to forget Mexico has redeeming qualities.
This Mexican national illegally in our country is costing US a fortune.
Send her home.
Send them ALL home.
How long before “NHS refugees” from Canada, UK, and the rest of the world start to claim medical asylum here?
I do have compassion for this woman.
I would have a lot more if every Tom Dick and Jose weren’t coming over the border with a sob story. It seems to me the churches and organizations that are pouring millions into legal aid for imaginary “families” being separated at the border, could find a little for this womans medical bills.
People with kidney failure have trouble metabolizing proteins, a keto diet would probably put her in crisis more frequently, possibly kill her before effecting the diabetes.
Some young Marines I knew drove into Baja to visit with their parents vacationing there.
Returning in midday they were involved in a traffic accident.
They were taken to a local hospital and ‘treated’.
Upon return to post, they became very sick.
Internal injuries that had not been noticed.
One was kept for over a week!
Apparently, they just stitched the exterior and sent them on their way.
I do hope and pray that all is safe and comfortable for you south of the border.
That reply was from an answer blog where people ask questions o different topics, in this case whether Mexico has socialized medicine. The answer didn’t come from me, I’m sorry if some here thought it did.
Costa Rica isn’t Mexico, but I had a health emergency while in Costa Rica. I was taken to a Catholic hospital and stayed three days in “intensive care”. A nurse was in my room 24 hours for two of the three days. The president of the hospital (an ancient nun) visited me and prayed for my recovery. People said that waking up in a hospital in a foreign land is the ultimate nightmare. It wasn’t for me. The treatment was first-rate and everyone was wonderful. Cost me a couple of thousand dollars on my VISA card and surprisingly my US insurance paid for most of it.
Latin America is not what a lot of people think it is.
The question is not about being “entitled” to any medical care in Mexico.
It is what medical care you get in Mexico. No thanks.
GTFO of the USA! Go to one of the health system paradises. We have Americans in real need and this parasite needs to move along to Canada or Cuba.
