Shayma Svileh was met at the San Francisco International Airport by a large crowd of people supporting her, writes CBS.

Before this, Svileh tried several times unsuccessfully to obtain a tourist visa to the United States at the American embassy in Egypt, where she now lives - she was refused due to the Donald Trump administration's ban on entry into the country of citizens of six countries with predominantly Muslim populations, which include and Yemen.

Her son, 2-year-old Abdullah, suffers from a degenerative brain disease and is in Oakland Hospital (California). It can be disconnected from the life support apparatus at any time.

The boy’s father, Ali Hassan, flew to California a few months ago with Abdullah, hoping that American doctors could save the boy. At the same time, the mother of the child remained in Yemen.

Hassan is a US citizen, so he was able to fly to the USA with his son without any problems.

Since then, Svileh tried to achieve the opportunity to be with her son, but she was repeatedly refused. But in the middle of December 2018, the family history attracted the attention of legislators, journalists and thousands of supporters who wrote letters to Congress.

December 18 Svileh learned that the US State Department gave her the right to fly into the country and spend with the son the last days of his life.

At the San Francisco airport, the woman did not say a word to the large crowd of supporters and journalists who met her, but many understood that her thoughts were occupied with the upcoming meeting with the child.

The couple gave a small press conference outside the hospital, after which she asked the journalists to give them a quiet time with their son.

“This is a difficult time for our family. But we are blessed to be together,” Hasan said.
