The wife of Bali shooting victim Zivan Radmanovic is still in Indonesia, a close friend has revealed in a desperate public plea for support.
Mr Radmanovic, 32, was shot and killed at a villa at the Badung Regency north of Kuta on Saturday.
His wife Jazmyn Gourdeas was in the villa but not physically injured.
A second man Sanar Ghanim, 34, was also shot during the attack.
An image shows Mr Ghanim being tended to by paramedics with his feet and face covered in blood.
Now, a fundraiser has been launched for Ms Gourdeas, with close family friend Jamie Lee revealing new details about the aftermath of the tragedy.
'This sudden and devastating loss has left Jazmyn a single mother to six beautiful children, aged from just 9 months to 13 years,' the fundraiser states.
'While only married for just under a year, the couple were deeply in love and shared a family together.

'Now Jazmyn faces the unimaginable challenge of caring for their large family alone, including three children diagnosed with epilepsy who require ongoing medication, therapies and frequent medical appointments.'
Ms Lee said Ms Gourdeas remained in Indonesia as the investigation into the killing progresses, and her family were taking care of the children in Australia.
The financial burden facing Ms Gourdeas would now be 'overwhelming', she added.
'Zivan was a kind, hardworking man devoted to his family,' she said.
'His loss leaves a huge hole in their lives, but together, we can help Jazmyn and her children find a way forward.
'Your donation – no matter the size – will help provide stability, care and comfort to a grieving family facing an uncertain future.'
As of Wednesday morning, $13,800 had been raised from a $20,000 target.

Media organisation Nusa Bali reported that one of the alleged offenders was arrested in Jakarta, while another person was captured abroad and was being taken to the Indonesian capital.
Indonesian National Police Chief General Listyo Sigit Prabowo held a press conference in Bali on Tuesday at the Jembrana Police Headquarters.
'Regarding the shooting involving Australian citizens, I have received a report from the Bali Police Chief. One suspect has been secured in Jakarta, and another is on the way from overseas,' the police chief told media.
'A more detailed statement will be released by Bali Police.
'What I can say for now is that this case was solved through co-operation between our Criminal Investigation Agency (Bareskrim), Immigration, and the Australian Federal Police (AFP).'.
General Sigit did not release any information about identity of the alleged shooters but told media that Bali Regional Police would provide more detailed information.
It was reported there were two alleged offenders who might be Australian and the gunmen used firearms during the attack.
It was not clear what the motive was behind the attack.
Bali Regional Police Chief Daniel Adityajaya said his department would provide an update later.
'Once the evidence and documentation are complete, Bali Police will issue an official statement to the public and media,' he said.
