A family of five in Donaustadt is struggling to survive financially. One daughter is disabled and the father suffers from Parkinson's disease. Now the grandmother who lovingly cared for the children has also died. A neighbor is now urgently asking for donations for the struggling family. 

"Mrs. N. doesn't have it easy - please help her!" A woman from Donaustadt recently contacted the "Krone" newspaper with urgent words. And at the same time set up a donation page on the "GoFundMe" platform.

Care, illness and now death
Day after day, she sees her neighbor Mrs. N. struggling to survive financially. One of her daughters is disabled and is just as much a care case as her husband, who has Parkinson's disease. Mrs. N. also has a school-age daughter and an adult daughter living with her.

This woman sacrifices herself for everyone in the house and hardly accepts any help herself. She is too ashamed to do so.

There wasn't even enough money for a funeral
So far, everything has gone well, as Mrs. N. works and her mom helps out. But now the next stroke of fate: her grandmother died unexpectedly in a tragic accident. As she didn't have much money beforehand, Mrs. N. had to borrow money for the funeral.

You can help too!
In order to continue to finance her daughter's school education and to find someone to help care for the disabled girl, an account was set up at www.gofundme.com, which can be found under the heading "A stroke of fate shakes the family".
