ABSTRACT
‘I feel like my mum’s living her life through me. I can’t be best friends with someone I’ve known since I moved because our mums fell out. I’m an ungrateful shit that doesn’t want to be pushed and pulled into place. Nobody gives me a chance and every time I make up a different way of me dying a hero. I wake up most mornings wondering why I still exist, when my soul aches to be free. When I run away it feels like I‘m free, like an angel. I can’t do anything right and when I try to I do it the wrong way. My Gran’s cancer was discovered on my birthday and I can’t say anything about this because I’m the one who has to hold my family together.’ Why is she upset? https://s3-euw1-ap-pe-df-pch-content-public-p.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/9781315833347/a609c9eb-07ad-42c9-ac54-44dbddb5af5d/content/fig33_C.jpg" xmlns:xlink="https://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"/> Source: Pearson Education Ltd/Melinda Podor
