Story
Last year, in February, a beautiful baby girl was born called Phoebe. She arrived at 25 weeks gestation and was an amazingly brave human being.
We visited Phoebe every day in Leicester & Coventry; I had to stop working to take care of my family & because we fell short of the benefit system, we were forced to live off Sarah's maternity pay.
Sarah & I shuttled to & from hospital every day for 10 months. We very quickly got ourselves into debt with nursery fee's (for Phoebe's brother, Jude), our petrol fuel bill was running at £200 per week, hospital parking charges, hospital food, plus the normal cost of running a home!
When Sarah & I were at our lowest ebb, when Natwest refused extra credit, or a payment holiday on our mortgage, TACT stepped in & helped my family. I’d always thought that Sarah & I were fairly ordinary people in extraordinary circumstances. When our life was thrown into turmoil, it was the help from TACT that touched & astonished us.
Phoebe died last November having never made it home.
I took up running which gave me space to think about Phoebe & how happy she made me.
Phoebe couldn’t come home, so we took home to Phoebe. By making a donation you are helping other families do the same.Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
