Variety Children's Hospital in Miami, where Elin was staying, asked a local court to allow an operation. Last week, after a hearing that featured a former March of Dimes poster child smiling in her wheel-chair as evidence that afflicted children can lead happy lives, Judge Ralph Ferguson ordered doctors to operate.
