The’90 Day Fiancé’community is rallying around Armando Rubio and Kenny Niedermeier as their 13-year-old daughter Hannah battles a serious medical emergency. After suffering a brain bleed, Hannah was airlifted from a small Mexican town to a Phoenix hospital where she underwent emergency surgery. Kenny Niedermeier, who was in Ohio attending a family funeral when the crisis began, has been posting hopeful updates from her bedside. On Friday, he shared that Hannah“came out of the latest procedure very well,”offering some reassurance to worried fans and family members.
The situation took an even more heartbreaking turn when Armando Rubio’s humanitarian parole request was denied by U.S. Customs and Border Protection, leaving him unable to cross the border from Mexico to be with his daughter during her recovery. In emotional social media posts, Armando expressed his anguish about being separated from Hannah during one of the scariest moments of her life, saying“Every parent wants to be at their child’s bedside when they’re sick, and not being able to hold her hand or comfort her has been the hardest thing I’ve ever experienced.”
The family’s GoFundMe campaign has raised over $146,000 to help cover Hannah’s mounting medical bills, with doctors planning an angioplasty procedure to determine the cause of the brain bleed. Armando posted a message of gratitude to supporters, thanking donors for being“angels through this”and making the situation“a little easier”despite his absence. As Hannah continues her recovery with support from Kenny, her grandmother, and an outpouring of love from fans, the family remains hopeful for full healing.
