Relebogile Mabotja speaks to Uviwe Ncanywa, a licensed clinical psychologist, about the often-overlooked emotional experiences of siblings of children living with serious illnesses or long-term medical conditions.

When a child is diagnosed with a chronic or life-threatening condition, a family’s focus naturally shifts toward treatment, caregiving, hospital visits, and survival.

But in the background, healthy siblings are often left navigating complex emotions on their own, from anxiety and guilt to loneliness and feeling unseen.

Broadcaster veteran Relebogile Mabotja brings a fresh, relaxed take on the issues of the day, alongside lifestyle talk and all things entertainment.
