The Human Aspect of Hanne-Karine

Growing up I had the primary role of supporting my brother through his extreme physical disabilities. I felt it was my mission to ensure that he had as good of a life as possible, even if it meant I forgot my own needs at times. Thankfully he outlived all expectations, but our constant fight for his survival and his need for support took a heavy toll on me and my family.
