Time for a Hope House update
Brogan continues to display some levels of independence and even managed to dress herself for the day trip to London to meet her special friend Gary C. Her key worker had to remind her to put SPF on her feet, which Brogan did enthusiastically with her SunBum spray.
Unfortunately Brogan forgot to pack her Wild deodorant but thankfully her key worker had booked seats for ‘Frozen’ away from others. Despite it being her 5th time watching the show, Brogan got slightly overwhelmed by the bright lights and musical numbers resulting in tears and over the top screaming which caused complaints from other guests, including Gary C.
Due to this, her key worker had to remove Brogan during the interval, causing Brogan to have one of her episodes. Brogan could only be calmed down by 6 mini tubs of ice cream and whilst we don’t usually allow Brogan to consume alcohol, a large glass of Asti was permitted to sedate her. We continue to monitor Brogan closely here at Hope House and we believe this set back will not deter her from future outings.
