But 17,000 people have since lifted her spirits. While swimming with a friend and her 16-month-old son Maali on January 18, someone stole Ms Stacey's custom-made nappy bag, cards and phone. She lost the only copies of precious photos and videos, like Maali's first steps, but the community has rallied to help after a Facebook post about the theft went viral - being shared more than 17,000 times. Lisa Stacey posted on Facebook after her bag was stolen at South Bank's Streets Beach on January 18. Ms Stacey, from Ocean View, said she posted on Facebook hoping friends might see it and as a warning to be careful at South Bank. "There were photos of silly little things that our little boy does, he likes to take lots of selfies ... video of his first steps," she said. I've lost them forever now. I thought who knows? Maybe someone knows someone and seeing a post about it might make someone feel guilty and hand the phone in anonymously. The 33-year-old said she was overwhelmed by the response, with the post shared in Australia and Europe. Help flooded in from strangers, including three mums who wanted to make a new nappy bag and a photographer who has offered a photo shoot with Maali. A friend also bought her a new laptop and phone. I've had so many messages from people ... just saying I really hope you find your phone, I totally understand how devastating it is. I wasn't expecting anything back from anybody, I was hoping that somebody might know who had stolen a bag ... but what I have received from people is absolutely amazing. If you see a nappy bag with The Very Hungry Caterpillar print, with "Maali" on the front, call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
