Summary
Phoenix ICU doctors were still testing Hannah on Wednesday after scans in Yuma, Arizona, found blood in her brain and local physicians could not explain the cause.
Half her face suddenly drooped and one side of her body lost strength at her grandparents' home, prompting Armando to rush her to a doctor in their small town.
Small-town doctors said her blood pressure and other levels looked normal despite symptoms pointing to a brain problem, leading the family to seek treatment in the United States for better scans and equipment.
Armando said his mother crossed the border with Hannah by ambulance while Kenny was in Ohio and planned to fly to Phoenix the next morning; Armando said he could not be there yet.
The emergency followed Armando's public request for help obtaining a medical travel visa, underscoring how the family's cross-border situation complicated an already critical case.
