At 14, Yulia Hicks has already had more than her share of bad luck.

Brought from Ukraine to the United States in December 2018, she was given up by her first two adoptive families before Chrissy and Lee Hicks adopted her in 2021. She suffers from Senior Loken Syndrome, a genetic condition that is destroying her kidneys and eyes and will soon force her to have a kidney transplant.

Now Yulia is facing another crisis, this one seemingly caused by her own physicians.

Doctors at Duke University, where Yulia has been awaiting a kidney transplant, have told her parents they will not give her a new kidney unless she is vaccinated against Covid - even though Yulia has already had and recovered from Covid.

They'd gladly perform the surgery if it was for a transition.

Right, bet they would sew a dick on her in no time. That is just sick. Shame on them. They aren't doctors. They're demons.

Medical professionals who refuse to admit this is better than the vax are crazy.

This is why the "Pandemic Amnesty" stuff is pure bullshite.

Right. And find another doctor because this doctor is giving COVID brainwashed propaganda excuses to not provide the transplant.

Maybe this is a charitable case and she has no where else to go.

well that doesn't sound like a recommendation at all

unless the definition of recommendation has been changed to mean requirement? I dunno, I can't keep up with the new definitions

This has to be a requirement in order to get the transplant...not required by the doctors right? If it is on the dr's they need an arse beating
