Aileen's son Dylan had a severe drug addiction a few years back and she credits his treatment at the Aislinn Adolescent Treatment Centre in Ballyragget in Co Kilkenny, with saving his life.

Aislinn is run by Aiseiri who have extensive rehabilitation and treatment services in Waterford and the South East.
