How have you been? I remember you being quite upset one day when you came. Yeah. No, my mom messaged me that she had called the school up. I mean, I got that I only looked at the message like an hour later, and the school still hadn't taken me out.
Sometimes I'll need to like check my phone even if like I'm being supervised by a teacher while I'm doing it. Like just to check my phone while like to see if my mom's messaging me about anything if she's having any problems. Like what can I do to help? Like just stuff like that. It's just like schools need to understand that if your like performance drops or something, then it's it's there's a reason behind it. So, it's not always due to laziness. I don't find them all that. Mhm? Owen? No. How long have you been a young carer? Well, I've been a young carer since primary. And since I'm turning 16 this year, that's half my life I've been a young carer.
Seeing how like my mom feels about it, it's hard enough for her having a disability, but then she doesn't like how me or my sister would have to care for her. She feels it should be her caring for us and makes her really upset sometimes and that's hard to see. He put your life plan. It's not even pajamas. That doesn't really Sorry about that. It's been a busy day. How have you been, Karen? I've been great. Yeah, I've been good. Okay. Can you give me an example of what a day caring looks like for you? Okay. Let me write down Let me write it down. So, in the morning, I like have to wake up at like 6:30 a.m. because I have
to drop my little brother to school. So, I take a shower. So, by 6:35, my brother has to also get ready. I drop him off around 7:30, 7:45. I come home, get ready, take care of mom, come back from school, like run the same routine over and over again. Like giving her medication. Like I have to cook for everyone. Like in the middle of the night sometimes I have to wake up and you know, check if she's okay and stuff. Yeah. It's not nice though. Yeah. Kind of stressful, but at the same time like if you think about it, you're helping someone that you love.
You feel alone sometimes because it's like you're taking care of everyone, but it's like nobody asks you how are you feeling. So it's kind of like makes you feel a bit like upset and it sometimes it can lead to actually being depressed because you're always by yourself. Yeah. Okay, actually this tastes nice. Mhm. If my mom's like in a lot of pain for a day or like she's really emotional that day or something, I won't be able to fall asleep. It'll be really heavy on my mind or it will lead to me thinking of other things as well. It starts like a reaction of me over thinking, me doubting, thinking what's going on. Is this okay? And then I'll tie it to other things, you know, over thinking at its finest.
She's had an infusion as well and um she was in a lot of pain during that time and when I'd go to school I'd sometimes be thinking, is she all right? So, know what's going on. I don't know how her appointment going. I don't know anything and it's the like lack of knowledge that makes it worrying for me, I think. More chips and salad? Uh yes, please. Thank you. I know when you're talking about your going to college, are you having aspirations to go to university? I feel like from taking care of my brother from a young age and I actually like taking care of kids. I feel like I'm raising my little brother over and over again, so I feel like being a nurse for children would help me and I'm like my mind is like at that
place and I that's where like my heart wants to be, so yeah. It's beautiful. Mhm. Yeah. Don't cry. You did so well, Karen. No. I want to make sure that if I can help you and support you for getting where you want to be, then I will do everything I can. Mhm. Thank you. Just keep carry on communicating. I will. Yeah? Mhm. Yeah. Mhm. I don't know right now if things like are how they are. I if I'll be able to move out because right now I'm quite needed at home, because my sister's already moved out
for university. And if I moved out as well, I feel the absence would be felt. Boys, the dessert's ready. Okay. If I leave and there's no longer me caring for her, I'm going to feel that absence and I don't know how right now how that's going to make me feel, cuz I'm not there yet. And I'll also be worrying if she's okay, cuz I just hope that she doesn't get to the point she needs to go in a care home. I would hate to see her like that. It's a lot to deal with. Yeah.
Come on, boys. Bye. See you next week. Thank you so much. See you next week. Bye. Be ready. I will. A- After I finish college, I don't know what I'm going to do though afterwards, cuz Have you thought about it then? I do want to go to university, but like c- could I really do that? Yeah, you could. Could I? Like you said, you'd work around it. But we'll we'll work it out. If you get really bad, then what happens from there? Take care. See you later. Bye-bye. When you leave and you're living your life in the future, you shouldn't be worried about me. You should be thinking about what's next. What do I need to do next? We'll have to just see what
what happens and every day is different and every day we have to just get through it.
