There is a very high likelihood of being denied. The cost of medication is extremely high. The medication alone would likely disqualify your application. Depending on when your child got diagnosed they may also already have liver damage and which could eventually require a liver transplant. A liver transplant may always be needed. Even if the government may pay part or all of the cost of a medication the cost is factored into the approval.

Your son won't be considered medically inadmissible unless his disease could represent a danger to public health or if his whole treatment (doctors, exams, medicines, social services, etc) could cost more than 20.517 CAD per year.

She knows this but also knows that the treatment costs for her son are likely over this.
