“TREVOR waited 465 DAYS TO GET SDA in HIS plan.”
“The wait time impacted BOTH my mental and physical health because of the stress of where would Trevor live. he was so unwell. I lived with my phone as my second heartbeat, as soon as it rang I’d go into anxiety.”
Trevor’s Mum
TREVOR
Trevor was living in hospital after coming from supported accommodation where he was malnourished and abused. There was no way I was going to let him go back to that accommodation.
Trevor had been approved for an apartment that was really appropriate for him and his needs, but he was at risk of losing that apartment while we waited for the NDIA.
The waiting time also had a huge impact on my physical and mental health and Trevor was becoming flat and depressed – not his usual bubbling self. I just felt so useless as a parent.
Since he moved into his apartment he’s put on weight, his personality has come back…he’s living the life of an average person…he’s never been happier.
