Illegal alien Lubia del Cid never had a sick baby when she entered the US, illegally, four years ago...
Sounds like the ends have met.....at least 5 times.
“But all the care Kemberly, a U.S. citizen, is receiving at Erlanger hospital and at the Shriners Hospital in Lexington, Ky., is in limbo because her mother is an illegal immigrant.”
Mom should go the heck home and get legal medical care for her child. Crimigrants should not be allowed to benefit from their illegal activities.
Is there a husband?
Oh, sure.
Child is the one who gets screwed over here. Time to do away with anchor baby laws.
whats that,something to null out social services?
Probably 5
Geez...betcha if I were to ignore a Guatamalan court order in Guatamala as a visitor there, I’ll be she’d be saying the Guatamalan equivalent of ‘tough $hit.’
“Time to do away with anchor baby laws.”
Yep.
Silly me, what husband? I guess I thought unless she’s the 2nd coming of the Virgin Mary, that there is a husband somewhere.
Comments from local people TN readers about this article:
I read this story online.
Shouldn’t Ms. Trevizo’s piece advocating special sympathy for illegal aliens be placed on the editorial pages of the paper? Is the journalist aware that thousands of American citizens arrested for breaking the law also often have family problems as well?

Millions of Americans go without medical care and the illegal alien receives it for free. This is another one of those articles that intentionally glosses over the stark reality of mass illegal migration and how these people and foreign governments take advantage of America. You will not see a foreign policy regarding this issue from either of the two candidates running for president. While they plan amnesty for millions of Mexicans the Chamber of Commerce is cutting deals with the cartels. I could see this story if there were less then half a million illegals in the country. It would pull at your heart strings to feel sorry for this illegal. But we are not talking about a few hundred thousand people here. We are talking about a population in the millions that is having a direct negative social and economic impact on the life’s of the American people each and every and every day.

Campbell, note that the baby is a citizen, not an illegal.
I recommend to the immigration judge that the “hardship” that the American daughter would face without her mother’s presence does NOT constitute an exception to immigration law in this case. The mother needs to be deported. She can arrange for her daughter to stay in the USA, if she would like. Or she can take the baby back to her country, to her family, where they could all be together.

I have a son with special needs and we have struggled for his entire 12 yrs to provide him with his medical care. I have worked fulltime, being a mother and a father to my son when his father was on deployments or working 18 hr days, 7 days a week in the navy.
I lost my job to the recession the President says isn’t happening. My husband’s retirement doesn’t pay the bills let alone the medical expenses and perscriptions. Military benefits are not what they use to be, especially after retirement. We’ve lost our home, our car, and live without many of the bare essentials. No one seems to see what we do for our son as out of the ordinary. We give up all but the basic essentials to give him care, and yet we don’t qualify for any help. My family has lived in this country for generations, fought in every war. My husband’s family are Native Americans. Where is our help???????

Each and every one of the prior posters is spot on.
We do not care for our own before aiding illegal aliens. I lay this at the feet of our news media and their sob-sister pleas and highly distorted and biased reporting in favor of everyone except those in dire need who are here legally.
How about some stories about legal residents trying their best to raise their kids?
Neither of our presidential candidates intend to even think about our problems — unless you are minority, single-female, or illegal. Sad affair, that.

This woman was an illegal & should be sent back to where she came from with ALL of the rest and thier children. Let the child come back in 18 years to claim citizenship if they choose it then. I believe the “anchor baby” ruling is BS at any rate.
If an American goes to Mexico or another country and produces offspring are they given freebies and citizenship? Absolutly not. It wasn’t supposed to be that way here either.
luvshelties,
Huge thanks to you and your husband for the military service. I am so sorry to hear you’ve been put in such a horrible position with your losses. I hope your situation improves. Would CoverKids help you any?

"Didn't understand", my ass. She understood, all right, and chose to ignore the legal order, skipped out, got knocked up, and had her "anchor baby". So, all is well, and the US taxpayers get "stuck" yet again.
Pilgrim's Pride ... another reason to boycott Wal-Mart and their "cheap" products.
Apparently not, the article doesn't mention a father. Not even a father for her 3 dependent teen-age sons in Guatemala. She just seems to drop them like eggs, and a rooster isn't necessary.
PING
Perla says these are human interest stories ...
Are they ???
my guess is no husband, just boyfriends
Should have been done years ago.
maybe she could take $5 out of the $600 a month she sends to guatemala to buy some condoms...
