Jennifer and her sister Karin were as close as teenage sisters could be and life was good in the McNamara household- that was until they suffered the loss of their father. As devastating as it was, they bonded together and forged ahead as a family. No one could have dreamt lightning would strike twice and without notice, their mother passed away after a very short battle with cancer.

Karin was old enough to go it alone and was prepared to care for Jennifer as best she could. Grief eventually overwhelmed the girls and Karin could no longer care for their complicated needs. Jennifer was placed in a foster care situation for 18 months. During this time, both girls had the opportunity to access counselling and work through their grief. As time passed, the girls became close once more and a reunification seemed imminent.  The only hurdle was the lack of space in Karin's home. Kids Under Cover provided a studio enabling the girls to reside together while still having their own space to retreat to.
