An American mother of five has been deported from Milwaukee to Laos—a country she had never set foot in until the forced move.

Ma Yang, 37, was born in a Thailand refugee camp to parents who fled the Vietnam war and, as a family, legally immigrated to the US when Yang was an infant. Now, Yang is stranded in a guarded rooming house in Laos where she cannot speak the language, has no access to insulin to treat her diabetes and has been stripped of identifying documents.
