research. we hope that someone will persuade the trump administration to reward maria isabel bueso with her life. and no one is more persuasive in telling isabel's story than the medical hero who has kept her alive longer than anyone thought possible when she was a little girl in guatemala. and longer than anyone thought possible when she ra arrived in california at age 7. so it is my honor to begin our discussion tonight with that medical hero, dr. paul harmatz who joins us now. doctor, thank you very much for joining us again tonight. i know your schedule is difficult. but it is important to you and so joining rachel last night, joining me tonight, i think is at this stage possibly the most help that you can bring to your patient. so thank you very much for joining us. >> thank you, it's been a whirlwind two or three days. we're beginning to see some hope.
