Mum thought her headaches were due to epidural. It was brain cancer.

Danielle Clent Reporter from Western Leader

Hi neighbours, a new mum who gave birth alone during the Covid-19 lockdown has been diagnosed with terminal brain cancer.
Jasmin McArdle, 40, gave birth to her second child, son Teddy, on April 21 by emergency C-section. Soon after, headaches that she has always dealt with, became more painful.
She thought the headaches were a symptom of the epidural - only to discover she had a large tumour on her brain.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
