A four-month-old Iranian girl, scheduled to fly into Portland for a heart surgery appointment at OHSU had to postpone the procedure after Drumpf’s immigration order.
The infant, Fatemah, has a heart condition. Her family found out about it at a routine checkup, and her pediatricians say she needs to have surgery soon.
“They said ‘this is a miracle, we don’t know how she had lived with the big problem she had.’ Immediately she has to do the surgery,” her uncle, Samad Taghizadeh , told KATU News.
Taghizadeh lives in Portland with Fatemah’s grandparents; they are American citizens. The family chose to have the open-heart surgery at Oregon Health & Science University – which boasts one of the top pediatric cardiology programs in the U.S. – because facilities in Iran do not have the equipment necessary for such a procedure.

Donald Trump took to twitter this morning in an attempt to refute Meryl Streep’s denunciations, leveled during an emotional acceptance speech at last night’s Golden Globe Awards.
Without once mentioning his name, Streep nonetheless had portrayed Trump as a bully who uses his position of power and capacity to humiliate and disrespect others.
DONALD TRUMP SUGGESTS CLINTON’S BODYGUARDS “DISARM IMMEDIATELY” AND “SEE WHAT HAPPENS TO HER”
Yet another installment in the conservative gun rights fear-mongering saga
Another day, another not-quite-threat from Donald Trump.
At a campaign rally on Friday, September 16, the Republican presidential candidate said that Hillary Clinton’s bodyguards should “disarm immediately” and “see what happens.”
“She goes around with armed bodyguards like you have never seen before,” he said at the Miami, Florida, rally, according to The New York Times.
“I think that her bodyguards should drop all weapons. They should disarm.
Right? Right?
I think they should disarm immediately.
What do you think? Yes? Yes. Yeah. Take their guns away. She doesn’t want guns. Let’s see what happens to her.
Take their guns away, okay?
It would be very dangerous.”

Granted, people who possess great political power are always targets for the disillusioned, but this isn’t the first time Trump has insinuated gun violence against his opponent AGAIN.
Just another traveler on life's highway hanging out in the slow lane. It's quiet, it's peaceful. Beyond the horizon is rest calling my name. Green pastures, still waters, my cup runneth over.
