A New South Wales father has spoken about his heartbreak about not getting to visit his daughter, 4, who is undergoing treatment for cancer in Brisbane.
Brad Jones told Seven News he lived in Lismore with five other children and was unable to routinely quarantine as he had to carefor them and hold down a job as well.
But not knowing when he would be able to visit his "princess warrior" next was heartbreaking. Charlotte has her mother Melissa with her in Brisbane.
"It's not just about the expense, we've got a young family down here," he said.
"I've got a job so we want to still keep an income coming through.
"When we get around each other, it gives her that big lift."
He has called for Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk to change the border restrictions amid growing pressure and heartbreaking stories of families ripped apart due to the rules.
"Please Annastacia – have some compassion – I really want to see my daughter," he said.
