The Believe in Magic charity was set up by a 16-year-old girl and her mother. Megan and Jean’s charity helped grant wishes to sick children in a make-a-wish sort of way and some kids, including Megan, even got to meet One Direction members.

The charity was founded because Megan was diagnosed with a rare brain condition and a few years later a brain tumour.

A group of internet sleuths became suspicious after Jean tried to raise money for an emergency trip to see a doctor overseas.

So was Megan sick? And if she wasn’t, then how did she die? Journalist Jamie Bartlett has joined Mia for this episode of No Filter, as he got involved later down the track and what he discovered will send shivers.

You can hear the second half of Mia's conversation with Jamie here.

It Seemed Like A Scam But Then She Died. Megan Bhari’s Story [re-release]

Cait West was raised inside an fundamentalist Christian patriarchal cult that believed that women should be submissive to men and that girls should be raised to serve their husbands…by first serving their fathers. Until she was 25 years old, Cait was what is referred to as a ‘stay-at-home daughter’ - what exactly does that mean? And how did Cait decide to finally leave? Listen to this timely, important, and deeply empowering conversation to hear Cait’s incredible story - Only on No Filter.

You can follow Cait on Instagram here.

You can read Cait’s work & find her book “Rift” here.

Cait West Was A Stay At Home Daughter… And Then She Escaped

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/3ea926be-9be7-482a-8ac3-a44f016e43d1/clips/e8727751-eb87-4628-9a4f-b23e00b7f144/transcript

[Part 1 of 2] Having one baby is hard. Imagine four! This is the incredible story of Taylah Tudehope-Glachan’s pregnancy and birth with her quadruplets.

In Part 1 of Taylah’s tale, she details a roller-coaster fertility struggle; think PCOS, endometriosis and IVF.

Plus what it was like discovering her successful transfer had resulted in four babies.

You’ll hear about high-risk pregnancy, exactly HOW she fell pregnant with quads, and how she handled her hospitalisation at 24 weeks

Can’t wait for part two? You don’t need to! Listen to part two of Taylah’s story here.

If you’re a soon-to-be mum of multiples, the Australian Multiple Birth Association is a wonderful resource.

Diary Of A Birth features mums telling their miraculous stories of bringing life into the world, and we have all medical questions and concerns cleared up by one of Australia’s favourite paediatricians, Dr Golly.

If you’d like to share your birth story, we’d love to hear from you at podcast@mamamia.com.au or send us a voice note here.
