A
couple of
weeks ago I found out what a dear cyber friend in
Australia has been going through. Her story brought home to me how very precious our freedom is. |
******************************
Jamie's
Story ~
After developing two
thriving businesses in Australia, Jamie is experiencing the trauma of losing her
home and her financial security.
Her government "thought it best" to take control of all
her and her husband's finances, because he was beginning to
suffer from dementia.
Jamie has spent thousands
of dollars the past four years, trying to continue caring for her
husband and to maintain control of her own money and material
possessions.
This is money she and her husband created together over 30+ years
of marriage.
She recently went for months without a stove to cook meals
because the government would not give her enough of her own money to buy a stove.
Newspaper articles in Sydney have reported thousands
of such cases where the family finances have been taken and the
"patient" has died alone;
many suffering from malnutrion and poor care.
I am shocked and enraged
at this happening in a so-called democracy.
I don't pretend to know all the answers in such situations and I am sure that the agencies involved were initially created for a good cause.
But
what this has said to me is that we must all......
PAY ATTENTION ............ BE INFORMED.
We have the right to vote
and it is our duty to be a part of the decision making process of
our country.
Jamie never imagined she could be victimized by the country she
loved so well.
Neither should we here in
America take our liberties for
granted.
