(CNN) An Iranian baby with a serious heart defect may soon get the medical attention she needs in the United States. The girl and her family -- caught up in President Donald Trump's immigration ban -- have received an all-clear to enter the United States for critical surgery, New York Gov. Mount Sinai Hospital in New York offered to provide the surgery and medical care at no cost to the family, Cuomo said in his statement. The delay came after Trump's executive order put an abrupt stop on travel to the United States for citizens of seven Muslim-majority countries, including Iran. Fatemeh's family is hoping a doctor will perform the surgeries pro bono.
