A teen who brought her dad to the UK alone in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic due to fears he had dementia has revealed she managed to smash her GCSEs.
Keisha Macdonald told the ECHO about how she was adopted by her dad, a single parent, in Indonesia but two years ago she began to fear he was ill. She managed to convince him to travel to the UK, and with money from a friend, they travelled to the country.
The now 16-year-old, just 14 at the time, took the decision due to the lack of family they have, and since moving to the UK she has had to see her dad put into a care home while she is placed in foster care where she still remains. Despite her trials and tribulations, as well as the coronavirus pandemic which affected learning for thousands up and down the country, Keisha has managed to pass her GCSEs.
