A 4-year-old girl, referred to as “Sofia,” risks death within days if deported from the U.S., where she receives critical treatment for short bowel syndrome. Her mother, Deysi Vargas, is facing termination of humanitarian parole, which could lead to their removal to Mexico, where Sofia would struggle to survive without her specialized care. Lawyers argue that deporting them under these circumstances is a moral failure, while DHS states their application for humanitarian parole is still under consideration.
