Hi Simone,
I'm new to this thread, started reading last night and it brought tears to my eyes, you are such an amazing person, Anneliese it so lucky to have such a beautful mum as you are. I hope it's not too long before she is home again. On top of all of this, you have had your boys and yourself not being well, dont' you wish you could fast forward time a little.
With DH getting the sack, it's so wrong. I will say, I don't blame him for not wanting to go 'pubic' with it. It's a pretty big decision to make. I had a maternity leave case last year, I ended up ringing heaps and heaps of solicitors, most were not very helpful at all, infact they tried to put me off. I ended up finding a solicitor who was BRILLIANT. I took the matter further, it worked out for me. I know things have changed since the with the new IR laws, but still, companys are scared to have their name thrown around in court. It doesn't hurt to enquire. I rang first to know where I would stand as I didn't have the money to fight something I couldn't win, didn't cost me anything until I saw her. She was very honest and upfront with me. If your want more info, let me know.
I hope Anneliese is home with your all soon.
take care

Simone, Cant believe Ive only just noticed this thread. I am so sorry to hear of what you and DH have been going through, and what poor little Annelise has endured - thats more than an adult should ever have to go through, let alone your tiny little angel. I truly hope things get much better fast and you can take her home with you for good.


Thats awful about what has happened with your DH's job. Its really unfair, and cruel. Jodie was right though when she said

Unfortunatley I don't think the latest IR laws make any difference. Being a casual worker is always a risk, and within a 3 month trial (full time or casual) the employer has always had the ability to fire someone.

But even so, there is always room for compassion and discretion in this world, and it clearly has not been used in this case. If DH doesnt want to go to media, perhaps even go to a higher superior in the company and explain the situation - are OneSteel part of Bluescope?

Anyway, as you know the BB ladies are sending you tonnes of love, support and hope for your baby girl (now getting nice and chubby looking at that ticker pic!). Hope the other things get sorted for you soon too...

Hi Simone

You're still in my prayers and I am going to send you a present via Jess. Hope it is suitable.

Hang in there darls - we're ALL praying for your little girl.

Sorry about your hubby's job - sounds like his boss is a heartless a*hole. Can't blame the Prime Minister for a low grade scumbag boss no matter what the laws are!.

I hope things work out for you and you're always on my mind and in my daily prayers. Hang in there!
