Marie Carroll cares for her son, Jordan, who lives with an inoperable brain tumour. At the age of 11, he experienced a brain bleed, which left him vision impaired and with a host of significant, ABI-related medical complications.
But with all those pressures endlessly piling on, who cares for the carer?
Join Marie as she shares her experiences of isolation, fear and loneliness, with host Dr Zara Weedon. Together they explore the unfathomable impact of the caring role and the systemic gaps too many families fall through.
