Since my partner leaving in August, I'm now raising two young children on my own. I work as a driver, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries. I'm retraining as a medical coder in the evenings, which will triple my income by November, but I need to bridge the gap until then. Some weeks I skip meals so my children can eat. I have never asked anyone for help like this before, and I'm doing it for them. Once I finish my course, I'll pay it forward. Every cent is accounted for. I'll share a simple monthly breakdown. Where the $1,100 goes: • Rent top-up: $510 • Childcare and after-school care: $350 • Groceries and school meals: $150 • Course fees and exam costs: $90 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

      is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Enzo.

      • Enzo Tiago MedeirosOwnerAnswerID verified

        Rent top-up is $510 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Fair thing to want to know.

    • Chantelle G. Stephenson

      Thinking of you and your family, Enzo. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. God bless.
