Jane Courage (alias) shares her heart breaking story with us all. Forced to return to Australia by a legal system which would not take into consideration, her child who has Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy is denied medical treatment vital to his incurable illness. Jane is reaching out and sharing her story. Their are many New Zealand women trapped in marriages/relationships due to a inconsistent and inhuman legislation. Scared to leave their husband, where do they go? Do they take a chance, risk it and go to a womans refuge in hope that they will be taken in, accepted with no funding? To friends or family living in Australia, sometimes placing those who are helping at risk just by being their. Do they return to New Zealand? Jane did decide to return to New Zealand to be with her family to have a support network, to be surrounded by loved ones/whanau. Jane would also be able to gain work as family have offered to help her with her childs care. Her son also qualifies to full medical necessities. Jane has offered open and full access to her ex-husband anytime he returns to New Zealand. Her ex-husband is currently employed in Australia, is a SCV holder and currently ineligible to gain citizenship in Australia. Janes ex-husband does not wish for their child to return to New Zealand. He however has made no financial contributions for his child since their separation, he has custody every 2nd weekend since their return to Australia. Now forced back to Australia Jane has no family around her and is standing alone in a system which has denied her legal aid due to not meeting the reasonable prospect of success test therefore the Australian Government believe that Janes matter does not meet the appropriateness of spending limited public legal aid. With limited income and no access to legal aid Jane and her child are stuck in limbo living in a country denying her child the care he needs. Please respect and honour Janes strength for sharing her story. No hate comments will be allowed. A ban will be imposed straight away. Kia Kaha Iwi n Aus Team
