Gap Years
January 2013 – January 2015: My mother got sick from oesophageal achalasia., so I went on to take care of her. She couldn’t move, eat or bath herself. I had to do all the duties for her. For two years that I stayed with my mother I felt the passion growing in me to pursue social care. I felt that I had the desire in me to take care of the sick and the needy. My hope was that maybe one day she will walk again but unfortunately she passed away.
