They heard us! Our Hon Assistant Minister Alex Hawke MP has finally intervened! Thank you so much Minister from the bottom of our hearts! Yesterday, I had a meeting with case officers at DHA office. The 12 month welcome reprieve has spared us from deportation on July 11. My children and I were so thankful for this :’) But as a mother, like any other parent, we always wish for stability and assurance of staying together. We believe families and children need certainty. Kids can't get on with school and living life with the threat of another impending trauma hanging over their heads a year from now. Families belong together! And every child deserves to have both parents in one country. My son deserves that for being the bravest boy! We wish that our Asst Minister would quickly review the decision and let us remain permanently in Australia with my children, my FAMILY. On my part, I would not waste this chance that our Asst Minister has given me. I will try my very best to help our community more and be a living testimony to everyone who experienced the same in life. I believe that the government will not let this family suffer again and the TRAUMA of this has caused us. PLEASE CONTINUE TO SIGN AND SHARE FOR OUR ASST MINISTER TO REVIEW OUR CASE AGAIN IN THE SOONEST POSSIBLE TIME. From the bottom of our hearts...Thank you so much everyone! I know my family is in GOD’S HANDS already. We just need to do our work! God bless us all! Bernadette
