Last June I went through the death of my husband, and I'm now raising a teenage son and a daughter in primary school 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 August, 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 $950 goes: • Rent top-up: $330 • Childcare and after-school care: $270 • Groceries and school meals: $185 • Course fees and exam costs: $165 Thanks for reading all this.
