Macarthur locals grant a special birthday wish for Catherine who turns 42 on Tuesday.

A birthday is always a time of celebration, nostalgia and creating more memories with family and friends. However for a lovely local woman by the name of Catherine, her birthday this year will be bitter-sweet.

 

Catherine turns 42 on Tuesday, September 29 but sadly this year will be the first one without her beloved mother whom she had lost recently. Catherine, who has special needs, shared a close bond with her Mum and adjusting to life without her has been extremely difficult.

Rachael, Catherine's sister-in-law, has shared her immense heartbreak seeing Catherine going through such a difficult time and her friends rallied to show their support by posting on Facebook community noticeboards, asking locals to send a birthday card to Catherine to help her feel extra special on her birthday.

 

Though small in it's gesture, Rachael feels that this will mean so much to Catherine.

 

'After so much heartbreak and upheavel this year' Rachael said 'I really just wanted to help bring a smile to Cath's face. She is a very special person and deserves as much love and comfort as the world has to give.'

Since the post went live, in true Macarthur fashion, the community have already turned out in droves and have sent countless cards and even gifts to send a special birthday wish to Catherine. 

 

Catherine was overwhelmed with gratitude from everyone who sent her a birthday card and has said 'Thank you very much to everyone who has sent me birthday cards and gifts. It's making my 42nd birthday very special!' Catherine said.

 

If you too would like to send a birthday card to Cath, there is still time!
