Were they in this country illegally? Is that really the issue? The Shah of Iran came to the US for medical assistance 25 years ago as have many other wealthy, prominent people because the US medical system has the reputation of being among the best in the world. There are organizations that travel abroad to give medical help to people who are ill. Sometimes they bring gravely ill people to the US for help. I see nothing wrong with compassion for the ill regardless of their nationality or economic status.
My problem isn't the nationality of this girl. My problem is that the medical system f---ed up so badly when they gave her the wrong blood type organs. This is a stupid mistake that should have been caught. Someone else could have benefitted from those organs. It was a waste, and it cost this girl her life.
