Make content about: Andy gained his independence
Andy's parents cared for him for 40 years. Moving into supported living transformed his health and independence.
This story
Andy lived with his parents Kevin and Shirley for more than 40 years, but had grown frustrated, lethargic and struggled to express himself. As his parents aged, they worried about his future and sought a shared home for him through supported living. Within six months of moving in, Andy became energetic, took control of his health, and learned to cook, clean and garden.
