Photo / InstagramA woman whose income has been cut off by Melbourne's fifth lockdown but doesn't qualify for government support was stunned when strangers set up a GoFundMe to help pay her rent. Carly Soderstrom, 35, was blown away by the kind act – but said it was "disgusting" it had fallen to the public to support her. Soderstrom's video was so powerful, it prompted a fellow Victorian Michael Smith to set up a fundraiser to help. Admitting she is "exhausted" and "broken", Soderstrom said it feels like "my country has turned its back on me".
