Emma's days are defined by her role as a young carer for her mother, Lydia, who suffered a stroke. From dawn to late evening, Emma navigates a routine that includes preparing meals, managing Lydia's medications and therapy sessions, and ensuring her younger brother, Max, maintains some normalcy in his life. Despite her exhaustion, Emma finds solace in her responsibilities, developing a profound bond with her mother and a deeper understanding of her own strength and resilience. Schoolwork and personal time are squeezed into the margins of her day, often at the expense of sleep and social interactions. On weekends, Emma seeks brief respite to recharge, finding joy in small victories and the growing love and gratitude between her and Lydia. Emma's transformation into a caregiver reshapes her identity, imbuing her with qualities of compassion and maturity that will influence her journey forward.
