Baby Laith

Please look at this link. Baby Laith is in desperate need of a heart transplant. His parents have insurance, but it doesn't cover transplants. They make too much money to qualify for assistance.

This breaks my heart.

Is there no facility or doctor willing to do this pro bono? What about all of these doctors who travel to foreign countries to perform life saving surgeries on children? What about the doctors and facilities here in the US who welcome children from foreign countries with life-threatening illnesses and provide treatment free of charge to them?? Why can we not help our own first and foremost??
