QLD mum lost after birth to twins

Donation protected


Our dear friend, Fiona Louise Hayne tragically lost her life on Saturday 2 June 2018 after giving birth by emergency caesarean to gorgeous twins.  She was so excited about their arrival with her partner Blake and her teenage son Gage who has just turned 18.  She lived on the Gold Coast in Australia with her partner and son.

She was a quirky, hilarious individual who true to her character was known to many as either ‘Fee’ or ‘Lou’.

Lou was born in Leeton, NSW and moved to Canberra in her early years where she did most of her schooling.  Starting at Hawker Primary School, her award winning smile and zany personality was a great hit with her classmates.  She made many life-long friends during her first few high school years at Belconnen High School before relocating to Forster where she finished her last few years at Forster High School.  Lou lived in a few places along the east coast of Australia before settling on the sunny life of the Gold Coast. 

We were all delighted when Lou and Blake discovered she was pregnant with twins.  All of her friends near and far have been so excited about their impending arrival, checking in daily to see how she was going.  In her usual zany way, kept us constantly amused with witty comments and raw honesty about life, love and the impending twins!  Her Facebook posts had friends in hysterics and we all felt we were a close part of her pregnancy.

Her ability to light up a room with her tremendous smile every time she entered was just astonishing.  She was the first person to help a friend in need and was always providing support and guidance to loved ones.  Her smile was infectious and you just couldn’t help but smile and laugh until your sides hurt when you were with her.

When we heard the devastating news on Saturday, we were all so shocked and could not comprehend how this could have happened to our magnificent friend.  For Blake, the joy of the birth of the twins unfortunately soon turned to disbelief on why his best friend was taken so suddenly from him, Gage and their newborn twins, Austin and Oakley.

The road ahead for those that are left to deal with this tragedy, will be long and hard.  Whist we are initially raising money for our gorgeous friend's funeral, we also know that Blake and Gage need  financial assistance to look after these gorgeous twins full time in the long term.

Please share our page to all of your family and friends as we desperately are trying to help the family get through this trying time as best as they can and with your support it will help to ease their burden.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for donations and page shares.  We cannot tell you enough how much it is appreciated as this incredibly devastating time.
