Klaus is a single parent of twin daughters - help us after a long illness
Klaus and twin daughters need a bridge to stability after a long illness.
🇩🇪 Stuttgart, Baden-Württemberg, Germany1,343 views
Last August I went through a long illness, and I'm now raising twin daughters 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 $4,000 goes:
• Rent top-up: $1,800
• Childcare and after-school care: $720
• Groceries and school meals: $950
• Course fees and exam costs: $530
Glad we found this place.

Stay strong, Klaus. Shared this with my family
hope things get better soon, Klaus. Your post was clear and honest.
Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Greetings from Sylhet
