Tracy Jarman
Tracy Jarman is a 61-year-old woman from Auckland who has faced significant health challenges following a surgical procedure that left her with severe paralysis. After undergoing a fifth surgery to address spinal cysts, Jarman experienced a drastic decline in her physical abilities, resulting in 98% paralysis in her right leg and 65% in her left. Devastated by the outcome, she lodged a complaint with the Health and Disability Commissioner (HDC) in January 2024, seeking accountability for her medical treatment. Recently, the HDC decided to take no further action on her complaint, leaving Jarman feeling unheard and devastated. Despite the challenges, she has been actively involved in peer support for others with similar conditions, striving to adapt to her new reality while pursuing a degree in health and wellbeing with a focus on disabilities.
