I had such a lovely Mother's Day yesterday (pictured). But I really don't want this to be the last Mother's Day I spend with my beautiful boy. Please could you call Minister Alex Hawke and ask him to allow me to raise my son here in Australia, as his father is not consenting him to go out of the country with us. We have shared parental responsibility arrangement for our son. But I am the primary carer since he was born. Assistant Minister Alex Hawke's number is (02) 9899 7211. In just ten days, I could be forced to say goodbye to him forever. That's when my bridging visa expires. My son is only 8, but he's a smart boy. He now understands what's going on and asked me to keep fighting. It breaks my heart a son should be put in a position to ask his mother this. Yesterday, I took my son and daughters to a Japanese restaurant. He gave me lotion, scrub and another card as gifts. I was so happy seeing, kissing and hugging my son on Mothers Day. My son needs me and as a mother, I would do anything for him. He doesn’t want me to give up. Thank you so much for helping us. Bernadette xx
