I applied for indefinite leave to remain in 2008 the same year My son was born, I arrived to the UK In 1999 I had a 6 months visa and overstayed, however had children before My youngest son, 2002 I had a child, so was scared to come forward with fear of being removed and being made to leave My first born, however in 2008 I had to apply, My son was born premature and had an obvious health issue, he was kept in Intensive care for 6 months undergoing tests and surgery undiagnosed, I mentioned this in My case, the doctors made it clear he would need many more tests to determine the cause of His ill health, My initial application in 2008 was made making clear I had children here including My youngest who was very ill, I included photos, medical records the lot, they refused Me in 2009 stating:
"Mr XXXX's application of 5Th November 2008 was refused as there were no exceptional or compassionate circumstances in His case which would merit exercise of discretion and granting of leave outside of the Immigration Rules
therefore My sons illness had been overlooked, I was also given no opportunity to appeal, they told Me to leave leaving Me in "limbo" I have not and will not, I have applied for a reconsideration in October 2011 as My son got diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy last year, this diagnosis has shattered Me, His Mother has left Him and refused to look after Him, He is staying with a family member of hers, he should be with me, 4 years after being refused he still cannot walk, he drags his legs bend him crawling on the floor, he cannot use the toilet he wears nappies, and he cannot start a mainstream school, I am devastated, I cannot work to Financially provide for Him, I cannot work to get a home and take him, he is going to need live in care, cerebral palsy has no cure and I know the only "cure" is love and support I am his Father and have pleaded with Home office over letters/emails everything, I have gone to an MP to be told they are still looking into it, I complained to them as I Applied for reconsideration last year October all now 10 months later heard NOTHING, not even acknowledgment, they reply with an apology and say they are dealing with such cases in date order, yet My complaint was not just about the turn around times but the total disregard for My child's terminally ill health and need for Me to be here, also the refusal of My first case with no right to appeal on the grounds of having no compassionate grounds, If having a child with a crippling terminal illness, with no mother living in a spare room at a family members of hers house in need of his father who is powerless is not compassionate what is?
why was My sons illness not looked into on the very first application? 10 months later I get an apology for time lapse but NOTHING on My situation, sitting here feeling powerless, pathetic, and useless to My child who is now 4 and in need, all I can do is give him love, I am promising him things I do not know I can give, if I am taken away from this child how will he survive, I plan to spend My life being his carer, giving a fulfilled life the best I can, travel with him, and show him he will be OK and I cannot, instead I am penniless, hopeless and at the end of My road, what do I do? My solicitor scammed Me took My Money paid HO late etc etc am now acting alone in correspondence with them , quite literally pleading, I have 3 children here all of which know Me as Dad, in particular is My smallest, he NEEDS ME, and will ALWAYS need Me, it will not get better for him just more challenging someone please give Me some more advice?
