Kylie Bush is 9 years old, born and raised in Alexandria, Louisiana, and the State of Louisiana's Medicaid Program is handing her a death sentence.
Kylie lost her small intestine when she was four days old, leaving her with a medical condition known as short gut syndrome. She needs a three organ transplant to survive - a liver, pancreas, and small intestine. She has been on the transplant list for years, until just recently, when someone at the Medicaid office decided to take Kylie off of Legacy Medicaid (which she has been on since she was a month old) and put her on one of the Bayou Health plans, without warning her mother or getting her mother's consent.

Thus shall ye think of all this fleeting world:
A star at dawn, a bubble in a stream;
A flash of lightning in a summer cloud,
A flickering lamp, a phantom, and a dream.

I signed it.
Re: Petition to help save a little kid.
Thanks, I hope something positive happens for her and her family. It's sad to think of children being born to not even live 10 years. If anyone's wiling to say a prayer for her, that would be great too.
