Health Impact NewsIn a case bearing several similarities to Justina Pelletier’s family’s experience with Boston Children’s Hospital, and Isaiah Rider’s family’s experience with Lurie Children’s Hospital in Chicago, 10 and 12 year old sisters have been seized by Phoenix Children’s Hospital over a medical dispute. The mother has reportedly been ordered to not discuss the case with anyone, and has been forced to take down YouTube videos and a Facebook Page with over 3000 followers that was documenting the actions of Child Protection Services and doctors at Phoenix Children’s Hospital.
A medical rights advocacy group has now put up another Facebook Page that contained much of the history of the case, and that is the source of the information presented here, which Health Impact News would like to report. We don’t know how much longer this new Facebook Page will remain up, so we will provide a detailed summary of the case below, as reported on the A Miracle for Two Sisters Facebook Page.
Here is a short summary of the tragic story of Kayla and Hannah Diegel who have been seized by CPS and Phoenix Children’s Hospital (PCH) from the information Health Impact News has been able to examine so far:
Kayla and Hannah Diegel suffer from congenital disorder of glycosylation, (CDG, a form of mitochondrial disease.) Part of their condition is also suffering with “Gastroparesis,” which is a partially paralyzed stomach. As a result, they were fed through feeding tubes to bypass the stomach.
During the course of their treatment, the girls’ family doctor’s clinic of eight years, Estrella Mountain Medical Group, suddenly sent a letter to the parents instructing them to transfer the girls to the care of Phoenix Children’s Hospital Special Needs Clinic. They bounced between several different doctors at PCH, but they were all in the field of genetics. It was during this time that the girls were diagnosed with “congenital disorder of glycosylation” (CDG).
Unknown to the parents at the time, there was funding and drug trials going on for this rare condition. The article on the Facebook Page reports: “The glycosylation trial whose collaborative agreement is through NHGRI/ TGEN opened up on March 14th, 2014, just 3 weeks before the two Phoenix sisters were medically kidnapped.”
The mother reportedly began to suspect that something was going on, as she reviewed the medical records and medications her daughters were receiving. She requested that the care of her daughters be transferred to another doctor “due to his neglect and endangerment of younger daughter i.e., not returning phone calls, ignoring her severe pain and documented bowel impaction being treated from home by registered nurses, under his supervision.”
Shortly after this, in April of 2014, the hospital took custody of both daughters away from the family through CPS.
The family contends that the daughters are suffering since being removed from their family, as their feeding tubes have been removed. Kayla has reportedly lost 25% of her body weight after being in the custody of PCH for four months:
There was a apparently a court hearing this week, and the mother was threatened with punitive action if she did not remove her Facebook Page (which she did). It appears that the new Facebook Page, A Miracle for Two Sisters Facebook Page, was put up shortly after that. The new Facebook Page is sponsored by an advocacy group.
Health Impact News will continue to update this story as details come in.
Update: Girl Seized from Family in Medical Dispute In Grave Danger
The mother of the two girls was ordered by the court to remove all pictures and stories of the two girls from her Facebook Page and social media last week. She complied, but friends and advocates of the family copied all of the information before it was removed, and reported it on Facebook at the A Miracle for Two Sisters Facebook Page.
After Health Impact News reported on the information of this medical kidnapping story last Thursday Oct. 2nd, the court reportedly ordered the mother, Melissa Diegel, to have us take down our story. This was the email we received from Mrs. Diegel on Friday October 3rd:
The court has ordered that I contact you and ask you to to remove information regarding my daughters case.
Sincerely, Melissa Diegel
We did not take down the story, and many other websites and news organizations are now reporting on it. The mother never gave us the information to begin with. It is all on the Internet now.
The information on the A Miracle for Two Sisters Facebook Page reveals that 12 year old Kayla is in need of immediate medical attention, as is her sister Hannah. A Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) for the two girls reportedly resigned from the case over ethical concerns about how the girls were being treated in foster care. Kayla in particular was losing weight due to the fact that her feeding tube had been removed. She has a condition called “Gastroparesis,” which is a partially paralyzed stomach. She cannot take in enough nutrients by mouth, and needs the feeding tube. She has reportedly lost 25% of her body weight.
The CASA case worker noticed that the foster care parents were not using the feeding tube, and she felt that the foster care family was not equipped to meet the girls medical needs. This was reportedly the foster parents first time for caring for children in the foster care system.
The CASA case worker reportedly had developed a bond with the girls, and was concerned that they missed their mother so much and was not bonding with their new foster parents, whom were heard frequently yelling at the children. Kayla reportedly also had bruises on her arm due to malnutrition.
Therefore, the CASA case worker reportedly requested that the girls receive “safe-harbor” therapy without their foster mother present, but DCS declined her request. Frustrated, the CASA case worker reportedly resigned from the case due to ethical concerns.
Health Impact News has learned that the group ParentalRights.org is looking into the case to decide if they can help the family, as the children could be in grave danger, and all visitation rights of the parents have been revoked. There is not even a new court hearing scheduled until next year.
The advocacy group representing the A Miracle for Two Sisters Facebook Page has asked the public to contact Arizona Governor Janice Brewer to ask her to intervene and return these girls to their mother. You can reach Gov. Brewer here: http://www.azgovernor.gov/Contact.asp
They are also asking the public to contact the two candidates F. DuVal and D. Ducey who are running for to replace Governor Brewer, along with Congressman Franks who is the representative of the district the girls live in, on their Facebook Pages:

We have tragically reported of other cases around the country where children were removed from families by child protection services for medical reasons and placed into foster care homes where they were abused and sometimes even died. We don’t want this happening with Kayla and Hannah! Please pray for them and let your voice be heard!
We will continue to bring updates on this story as they develop.
These CPS workers and the medical tyrants piss me off with the audacity they display in seizing people and subjecting them to this genocidal medical-industrial complex.
Parents are going to have to fight to keep their kids, because we’re falling victim to an out-of-control tyranny that assumes the nation’s children belong to the state, to do whatever they want with.
I’ll breath a lot easier when CPS workers are being blown to pieces on a daily basis, because that’s the only thing that will stop them from snatching kids for sale to pedophiles, or to be slowly killed for profit by the Zionist medial system.
These two girls were stolen so an insurance company can be billed for millions of dollars in treatments. No one gives a rat’s ass about he health of these two girls except their parents, and the Jew doctors are probably drooling for the chance to cut those poor kids into pieces.
Drain their blood to make Matzos, Dr. Zion, and you can hold your head high in the synagogue.
