Yemeni mother gets US visa waiver 'to kiss and hold' dying son one last time
MEE staff

...

The toddler, a US citizen like his father, suffers from a rare genetic brain condition and is on life support in a hospital in Oakland, California.

His mother has been unable to travel to the US to visit him due to President Donald Trump's order barring citizens of several Muslim-majority countries, including Yemen, from entering the country.

Swileh hasn't seen her son son since 1 October, when Hassan flew with Abdullah to the US to seek medical treatment, local newspaper East Bay Times reported.
