Detailed Backstory

May Foxx grew up in East Vancouver, the daughter of Chinese immigrant parents who worked long hours to provide for their family. Her father took jobs wherever he could find steady income — driving, warehouse shifts — while her mother cleaned houses. Money was always tight, and May quickly learned the value of sacrifice.

She had dreamed of becoming a nurse since high school, inspired by a family friend who worked in healthcare and by her own experiences accompanying her grandmother to doctor’s visits. But university tuition was out of reach, and May didn’t want to burden her parents with loans they couldn’t afford.

Instead, she went straight to work after high school, taking jobs in retail and later as a care aide in a long-term care home. Those years taught her a lot about responsibility, compassion, and the emotional demands of caregiving. Despite the challenges, she never lost sight of her dream.

Now, at 27, May works full-time as a nursing assistant at a community hospital. Her days are long and often exhausting — she helps patients with basic care, supports nurses on the floor, and manages shifts that can run late into the night. But after work, she attends night classes at a local college, slowly working toward the qualifications she needs to become a registered nurse.

Her schedule leaves little free time, but she remains deeply motivated. On weekends, she visits her parents, helps out with errands, and sometimes treats herself to quiet evenings by the ocean. Her close friends admire her resilience, though she rarely talks about how hard it is to juggle everything. For May, the sacrifices are worth it — she believes in building a better future not only for herself, but also to honor the struggles her parents endured.

Her story is one of perseverance: a young woman who put her dreams on hold for her family, and now, through sheer determination and sacrifice, is carving out a path toward the life she’s always wanted.
