Independent Doctors Demand Texas Children's Hospital Give Annelise Camp Every Opportunity to Live
Two-year-old near-drowning patient puts Texas's Right to Try law directly to the test; IMA calls on hospital to stop pressuring parents toward life-ending decision
FULL STATEMENT: WASHINGTON, D.C. — The Independent Medical Alliance (IMA), a national coalition representing more than 12,000 independent physicians, researchers, and clinicians, today issued an urgent statement demanding Texas Children's Hospital cease its pressure campaign against the parents of Annelise Camp, a two-year-old near-drowning patient currently fighting for her life, and honor the family's right to pursue every available avenue for their daughter's recovery.
Texas Children's Hospital (@TexasChildrens) has indicated it intends to pursue a brain death determination for Annelise, over the explicit objections of her parents, who are seeking access to alternative treatments and supportive care in accordance with the state's Right to Try law. The IMA is calling that effort premature, medically unsound given the patient's age and circumstance, and a direct violation of the principles that Texas's Right to Try legislation was designed to protect.
"Annelise must be given every opportunity to recover," said IMA Senior Fellow @DrKatLindley, Director of the IMA Fellowship Program. "Texas Children's Hospital needs to remember its mission: to treat and care for every patient. The medical literature is clear that young children who have experienced near-drowning events can and do make remarkable, even extraordinary recoveries, recoveries that would have been impossible if families had been forced into premature end-of-life decisions. These parents are not in denial. They are doing what every parent would do: fighting for their child's life. Texas Children's Hospital must stand down from this pressure campaign and work with this family, not against them."
The Science Is on the Family's Side
The medical case for giving Annelise time is grounded in well-documented neurological science. Young brains possess extraordinary neuroplasticity: the capacity to rewire, compensate, and restore functions once thought permanently lost, even following prolonged oxygen deprivation. There are many documented cases of toddlers and young children who have regained consciousness, relearned to walk and speak, and gone on to live full lives after near-drowning events and extended coma.
Any decision to foreclose the possibility of recovery, over a family's explicit objection, and in a patient population where the science supports waiting, is not a medical determination, but rather a policy determination, and exactly the kind of action that Texas's Right to Try law was designed to prevent.
"Families must have the right to give their child every chance to fight back and recover," continued Dr. Lindley. "That is precisely why Texas passed its Right to Try law, so that parents facing the most devastating moments of their lives are not also being pushed toward irreversible decisions by institutional timelines that may have nothing to do with their child's prognosis. Texas Children's Hospital has an opportunity right now to lead with compassion, to work alongside this family, and to demonstrate that patient-centered care is more than a mission statement. We are urging them, in the strongest possible terms, to take it."
Dave’s Killer Bread became extremely popular, it’s America’s Number 1 organic bread brand and is now a billion dollar brand
It’s so popular because it was healthy, unfortunately the ingredients have drastically changed after being bought out by the parent company of Nature’s Own
Early versions of their bread were much simpler and some only had about 10 ingredients
That’s all changed after the acquisition
Newer versions of the bread now contain 25+ ingredients with some having 30+ ingredients
The ingredients were added for large-scale commercial production, consistency, shelf life and texture
Fans of the bread have reported taste and texture changes saying its drier and denser
Every food brand is eventually destroyed by a monopoly buying them up
It’s the illusion of choice in America
Such a BEAUTIFUL moment between Pete Hegseth and this WWII Hero Veteran. Mainstream Media will never show you this
This is why I fought hard for Pete Hegseth
Lord Lamont and @CTDems love telling you how compassionate they are… Much of this is bc “undocumented” folks on Husky walk into any ER, press 2 for English, get full coverage — and never pay a dime back. CT taxpayers foot the bill. Your family? Stuck paying Obamacare premiums that keep climbing; it’s your healthcare that suffers. This isn’t compassion. We have Medicaid FRAUD all the way down, how “Free” works… it’s Nutmeggers getting robbed! Unsustainable.
Today we said goodbye to my grandma Alice. Who lived 97 strong years.
She served in the Navy in the 1950s. Even 70 years later she got a final military salute with taps played as well.
RIP & God Bless America 🫡 🇺🇸
82 years ago today, over 10,000 Americans were either killed, wounded or missing after the D-Day invasion. They are the shoulders we stand upon. Their sacrifice is why we STAND UP for our Flag. I dedicate this song to them today. Here's "The Man."
Is Texas Children’s Hospital going to kill this child as retribution because they are angry at AG Ken Paxton for successfully blocking them from doing trans surgeries on children?
This tiny little girl has shown some signs of recovery nearly drowning on Memorial Day and multiple doctors agree the hospital needs to give her time for the swelling on her brain stem to go down - but the Hospital is pushing to do a brain function test and wants the family to donate her organs. Debra Sukin is the President & CEO. She will not let this child be transferred to another hospital - she is blocking the parents from fighting for the life of their little girl and violating their religious belief in the sanctity of life. The parents got a temporary restraint order against the hospital to give jen time & a radical Progressive judge blocked it & gave the hospital the right to do the brain function test now before she has had time to heal.
There are TWO other Texas hospitals in the area standing by ready to take this child. How can anyone let Texas Children’s murder this little girl?
Please share, please raise your voices, please do anything you can. #releaseannelise
Todd had terminal ALS and just ordered a wheelchair—then DMSO gave him his life back
His brain fog vanished. Breathing crises stopped in 3 days. He dragged 340-lb beams across a road. His reflexes healed.
His recovery shocked his doctors—but ALS is far from the only thing DMSO helps.
James Miller MD found roughly 80% of neurological issues people see neurologists for simply go away once he gives them DMSO.
Approximately 2500 studies support its use for conditions ranging from Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s to strokes, MS, paralysis, chronic pain, spinal injuries, depression, epilepsy, and Down syndrome.
Here, I will show how DMSO can cure many "incurable" neurological disorders.🧵
Prior to 1997, there was serious media coverage on vaccine injuries.
The swine flu vaccine was pulled from the market after 25-30 deaths were associated with it.
Today, there are over 39,000 deaths associated with the COVID shot and countless more injuries. Yet the legacy media remains silent.
Could Big Pharma’s billions of dollars in advertising spending be the reason?
In New Hampshire, I announced one of the most ambitious federal efforts ever undertaken to combat Lyme disease.
Under President Trump’s leadership, we are accelerating research, driving innovation, improving care for patients and families, and attacking Lyme disease at its source.
