Since a divorce in June, I'm now raising two young children on my own. I work as a school kitchen assistant, 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 October, 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 $200 goes: • Groceries and school meals: $90 • Childcare and after-school care: $70 • Course fees and exam costs: $40 Thanks for being kind about this.

  • Best of luck. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.

    • So sorry you're going through this, Opio. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. My husband and I read this together. Blessings
