Tell us about your debt and how has this affected you? e.g. anxiety levels, financial and accommodation stress: 

Stress, anxiety for both me & my husband. As my husband is my fulltime carer. I'm a palliative care patient as when I stop home hemodialysis my only option is palliative care because of the serious illness and complications of chronic disease I suffer. I feel like dying than suffering from this fuking debt where we don't owe nothing. I haven't work ed since I fell ill. This debt is from salary continuance I received which was half of what I can receive because I was on CENTRELINK and because me and my husband are together he got the debt because of me.

How do you feel about the way the Government has handled this process?: 

Not good at all . We can't physically see anyone here in WA inregards to this debt . It is wrong with what they are doing to us .
