  "account": "A Gorm mother of quadruplet boys, Madam Felicia Kisseh, has sought financial and material aid as the escalating expense of raising her four young sons strains her family's resources. The family is grappling with the significant financial burden of providing food, diapers, and other necessities for the children, who now bring added stress to John Felix Agbesi, a mason and the children's father. Madam Kisseh explained that support from individuals and organizations following the quadruplets' birth has dwindled within six months, leaving them without adequate means to sustain their needs. As a former breadwinner, Madam Kisseh finds it challenging to return to work due to her constant care of the infants around the clock. Each month, the family requires approximately GH¢2,600 for baby food and about GH¢500 for 50 diapers, alongside home-prepared meals. Despite the financial strain, the mother remains devoted to the boys, who also include an eight-year-old son. She cried out for assistance from philanthropists, charitable organizations, corporate entities, and concerned citizens, requesting food, baby supplies, and financial support via her mobile money number, 0548912995, to alleviate the family's financial strain and ensure their proper care and nourishment.",
