i don't care if they are imigrants or whatnot ...would still think it is blindly spiteful regardless of who it is. My sister was gravely ill as an infant. Luckily she didn't neen a transplant but I know for sure my parent's would have given hers if she had died. Even if the blood types were the same she still may have died. Then what? Still stick your nose up on the same system that gave your kid a chance.

Totally agreed Sarah. 100%.
If anyone should understand the desperate NEED for organ donation it should be those parents. And I agree with the argument that they wouldn't have asked for the donation if the organs weren't viable at that point. Think of how many other lives could have been saved or prolonged because of those donations.
When life gives you lemons - you need to make lemonade. This was that family's - and Jessica's - chance to make a miracle out of tragedy.
I agree - we have a problem with illegals in this country. Hell, I live in MexiCalifornia
but that really isn't the point here. The point is that as parents - as human beings - as people who depended upon the donor system for their own child....they should have agreed to the donation.
Just my .02 cents...
