    I think we all are aware of that, I did say who knows what will happen in the future.

    If you are severely disabled, which would you rather have one, two, three, five years or an indefinite award written on your papers?
    I think it's a no brainer.

    In the meantime I don't have to worry about filling in any more forms and be more ill with the stress and self-retribution for being ill in the first place; NO LONGER ABLE TO BE A USEFUL HARDWORKING MEMBER OF SOCIETY WITH A ROSY FUTURE AND SO MUCH MORE TO GIVE.

    At least when all the new changes take place we might have a chance of being looked at sympathetically, or at least be last to be re-assessed.

    Yes it is a distinct possibility, but my life is difficult enough, by 2013 all sorts of things could happen; and I am going to try and NOT WORRY ABOUT THAT WHICH I CAN'T CONTROL.
    well said!! although i dont have the same award as you,mine is also an indefinate award,has been for last 6yrs and i hope that by 2013 it will be seen that the biggest majority on indefinate are actually on it for good reason!!
    i came into the world with nothing,and guess what? i still have it!!!:p

    Obviously everyone didn't know about it or I wouldn't need to have clarified it for another poster. No brainer there.
    *SIGH*
