Recipient story
New Mum - Partner died when she was 33 weeks pregnant
Other hardship(s)
This Mum lost her partner unexpectedly at 33 weeks pregnant. She then gave birth 4 weeks later (@ 37wks) to a baby boy. He is currently 12 weeks old and Mum is doing her best at learning to be a Mum whilst struggling with grief. Adding to her stress, her partner ran two business (one which she worked for) - however these business are now unable to operate and Mum's only source of income are Centrelink payments. Mum tried to keep the businesses going but it was just not possible logistically, mentally or physically. Mum is trying to engage with Mums groups and library activities to keep connected with people but lives rurally - every trip in the car is minimum 50kms and the price of fuel makes it really difficult. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated while this new Mum navigates a difficult transition into parenthood under the hardest of circumstances.
