Helping to look after someone when you are relatively young can sometimes be far from easy or fun.
At these times, and generally, finding ways to cope and making sure you look after yourself can be essential.
Some things worth bearing in mind:
- You don't need to be alone
- Who can help you in coping with these caring responsibilities
- Who could give useful advice and help with choices about your future
