There's still time for a miracle." -Jahi's uncle Omari.
Jahi(Oakland, CA)-Jahi McMath's family is fighting for her life, literally.
The 13-year-old was declared brain dead by doctors after a routine tonsillectomy on December 9th. Ever since, Jahi's family has held out hope and faith that she will return to them, while the hospital plans to take her off of life support.
Now Jahi's family is hoping to move her from the Oakland hospital to a medical facility for long-term care, however, the girl must undergo a tracheotomy and have an implanted feeding tube prior to the move. That is something officials at Children's Hospital are refusing to do.
JahiAn Oakland judge ruled on Tuesday that the hospital could remove Jahi from life support after December 30th at 5pm.
Jahi's uncle, Omari Sealey told reporters, "You don't want her, that's fine. We have a place that does want her, that wants to keep her alive. So help us get her out of your hospital so we can take her somewhere else where someone wants to help us keep her alive."
Please continue to pray for this situation.
