my son medical condition

When my son was a born he dint cry so they had to make him cry finally he did but they did not tell if there was anything was wrong with my boy. He was not born in the usa but when he reached one year he dint walk nor crawl so as parents we were concerned and advised to bring the boy to usa for medical check up and he was diagnosed with hydrocephalus and went through 2 major surgeries for shunt and another surgery for sleepapnea and took his tonsil and adenoids out.

Afterwards he was diagnosed with cerebrbal palsy since he had right side weakness and limps while he walks tends to drug his right foot down and holds a fist with his right hand. It has affected his speech and he has mild retardation he has been getting the best treatment in lomalinda hospital and has really improved. But now the immigration wants to send us back home because they cannot keep extending our stay and we cannot take this boy back to the third world country where he cannot get the kind of treatment that he has been getting here in the usa. Can somebody here us and help us he is the only boy that we have be blessed. Thank you.
