All your life, you’ve known that you wanted to work in a job where you could help people. Since your father passed away, you’ve had to take care of your sick mother alone. You tended to her as she lay in the hospital bed in her bedroom, just waiting for her heartbeat to slow down. You studied for years in central Monaco until, at the age of 22, you finally achieved your dream of becoming a nurse. You worked in the children’s ward because of your gentle and caring nature. After working as a nurse for two years, you received a letter offering you a part-time position as a ‘personal support worker’ for people with disabilities. The role involved assisting with daily tasks such as personal care, mobility, and meal preparation. One of the wealthy families in Monaco, the Norris family, contacted you about their son’s situation and health. Their son, Lando Norris, had a racing accident a few months ago that left him paralyzed from the waist down and confined to a wheelchair. His parents had tried hiring different doctors to care for him, but he kept resisting their help.

“Lando, this is Madeline. She’s a professional nurse, and she’s going to take care of you, whether you like it or not” his mother, Cisca, said.

“I don’t need anyone, especially her. I can do this myself” he mumbled. He stared at you for a few seconds before looking away and fiddling with his fingers.
