I'm not particularly happy with my life at the moment, haven't really been since I left school actually.
Things were all going along fine when I was 6th form, got along well with everybody in my classes and the courses weren't too stressful and I had more free-time on my hands just have a laugh, then about a month before my last exams my mum went and had a horrific accident and that's pretty much changed everything since.I had to obviously take time off school as my mum was in hospital and there were times I wasn't sure she was even go to live.By the time I got back to school there was one last piece of coursework that had to be completed in a few days and I was only half way through it and exams to revise for on top of it, managed to get decent grades in the end though.
Once I left school, I became my mum's carer as she had trouble doing a whole load of things after the accident, it's been over a year and half since the accident and she still cannot go out alone and probably never will be but there's not a great deal else I can do for her now, so it's time I started moving on with my life.
I've lost touch with most of my friends now, still see a couple of them but most are busy enough doing their own thing.
I've been learning to drive in the meantime as I didn't want to have to rely on buses when working and after a long days work, you don't really want to be going out on driving lessons.I failed my test yesterday, which I'm pretty gutted about.I'm pretty low on confidence now and just don't know what career path to take now.

She was carrying this wicker cabinet down the stairs and missed the 2nd step at the top and smashed her head several times on the way down.She was knocked out and didn't really regain full consciousness for about 2 weeks and she cannot even remember those 2 weeks.
I'd of happily moved the cabinet if she had asked but she never did.It was lucky I was home early that afternoon.
She fractured the back of her skull, broke her cheekbone in 2 places and smashed her nasal tract.She's got brain damage which means, she cannot see properly any more, she has constant double vision and dizzy spells.It's effected her memory, spelling and arithmetic skills.She lost her taste and smell too but they've gradually improved.
She also used to get this strange thing when she turned over in her sleep,where her brain felt like it was moving as she moved.
