A Journey of Growth and Positive Changes – Bessie’s Story 

A Journey of Growth and Positive Changes – Bessie’s Story 

July 29, 2025, Written by 0 comment

My daughter Bessie, now 35, joined SUN DAC Choa Chu Kang in May 2016. We have faced many difficult moments together. Bessie struggled with emotional regulation, and as her mother, I often felt overwhelmed and lost.

Through it all, the team at SUN DAC stood by us. I am deeply thankful to Training Officer Priya, Psychologist Veena, and our Social Worker. Their support went far beyond duty. They made home visits after hours, offered constant phone guidance, and were there even during our health struggles. I still remember the time Bessie had a meltdown over a haircut. I was panicking, but a calm phone call with Priya helped me manage the situation.

Today, Bessie has changed. We started a reward system that motivates her. She now enjoys weekly shopping trips, completes weekend activity worksheets, and earns her rewards through good behavior. Her confidence has grown, and our bond is stronger than ever.

I am truly grateful to SUN DAC for their care and creativity. Thank you for helping both Bessie and me through this journey. I hope more families like ours can find the same strength and support here.
