Sugey Carrazco, one of the 130 undocumented immigrants who request asylum to be able to reunite with their families in the U.S. in late March as a part of the "Bring Them Home" campaign, continues to await the ruling of authorities, even though she is five months pregnant.

According to Univisión, 27-year-old Carrazco, a mother of two, lived for more than 16 years in Oregon before leaving in 2010, and her state is delicate, according to a friend of her.

The young Mexican woman has request asylum to American immigration authorities, and permission to return to Oregon, claiming she fears for her life and her children's owing to her ex-husband, who allegedly chased her to Mexico when he heard she would have a children from another relationship.

According to Univisión, a memo from June, 2010, signed by the then director of ICE, John Morton, establishes that "outside of extraordinary circumstances and requirements of mandatory detention... no resources must be spent on foreigners who suffer from serious diseases or pregnancies."

However, despite being more than five months pregnant, Carrazco continues to await the ruling of immigration authorities which would allow her to return to the U.S.

Noemí Pérez, a close friend, told La Opinión that the woman is in delicate health and fears for the life of the unborn baby.

"She's not okay, I spoke to her today (Thursday) and she's been having contractions and back pain. She lost 7 pounds in two weeks. They told her that to see a doctor while detained she would have to wait 47 days and she's not getting enough food, despite that the infirmary ordered that she should get a little bit more food," Pérez told the newspaper.

In a few days, the young woman will have been detained for three weeks at Otay, which is why her friends and family fear for her health and her baby.
