Stan Cassidy Center for Rehabilitation

I went with the boys and their Mom and Dad to the Stan Cassidy Center for Rehabilitation.  These were two extra days, added on to their annual yearly assessment, that the staff felt they needed to formulate working goals for the boys. 

It's always a busy time for the boys and their parents with a lot of information to squeeze in to a short period of time. As a grandmother, I was glad I was there, to stay with the boys, so Mom and Dad could speak in private to the specialists at the center.

Some concrete goals were set for Aiden and some great suggestions were put forth for Brian. Now, to  initiate these goals and work to complete them. I'm so glad they have the Summer vacation coming up soon, to work toward those goals.
We stayed at the mini apartments provided by the center for just these circumstances. Very nice accommodations and lots of extras.

Here are a few photos of our trip.

All of us together.
