Should try saying Ehlers Danlos syndrome to them...the blank looks are amazing!:rotfl:

I used to have to tell doctors in the emergency room what treatment to give my now ex husband when he was in addisonian crisis....they would waste loads of time looking it up in their medical books and then realise I was correct.

the gp does that now with hms and look at me and says your just double joint , head and brick wall then refuse to look up hmsa website ,

the eds is something that will be spoke about at app with rhemy luckly he has hms to because i have always knew since eye test musles there dont focus right , hope i dont i will never be able to say it with my dyslexia lol

The care just has to be reasonable - you don't actually need to be receiving it. Many people find that they can do something; but it can takethem a few hours to do. if they have someone to help them, it would take half of that time.

So why do you need extra money for it if you decide not to organise the care? This is what i can't get my head round.

What do you do with the cash if you don't pay for help with the stuff you say you can't do.

Now you say you need HRC because you need help moving at night. Then you say there is noone to help anyway you so why do you need the money.

ash4becks gets HRC so she doesn't self harm she says. How does extra money prevent her doing this?

Many disabled people need equipment and generally have extra costs. (such as food or require extra water) DLA pays for the extra costs.

I don't understand why you ask these questions; yet spend your husbands' AA on other stuf? Why is it ok for you ro do that but those of us on DLA?

I didn't know you could get DLA for Dyslexia, how bad does it have to be?
That's a genuine question, not trying to be difficult, it's just there are loads of very successful people who have dyslexia.
My oldest has dyslexia but it isn't even on the radar for care needs, isn't Jamie Oliver dyslexic? He can cook up a good meal, OK that is probably flippant but would really like to know.

i have self harmed in the past though and overdosed, i think i got hrc because of the thing with knifes i have when i went for mam and classed under dwp a risk to myslef and others, wandering of in early hours of the morning etc in past got me in bad situations , or if my mind ticks and will not stop iam up every hour or two or i will sleep 16 hours this is dispite trying to stick to a bed time of before 1am

if i get like that i have a few friends that a trust 100% i rarely trust and they can calm me down when i get bad a stay over with me, i have payed for taxis for them to come over or me to go over to theirs but my sleep patterns are all over the place aswell like last nite i really wanted to sleep went to bed between 12-1 and i couldnt sleep at all till 8am i have had three hours sleep , i no i get worse if i dont rest well physicaly

There's a section on the form about communication. Some dyslexic people may struggle with reading and writing.

It would depend entirely on the needs of the person. There are some people who are mildly affected and manage and others who are more severe and require extra help.

Because all his care needs are completely and comprehensively met. He doesn't claim extra dosh then still continue complaining that he wakes in pain because there is no one to help him move etc.

He pays me £10 an hour for the 7 hours his AA allows. He is ill at the moment with a chest infection so I am totting up how much extra he will owe me:rotfl:

yes you can cant rember if its under low care or moblity but really does depend on how bad it is my reading writing and maths age range is between 10-12 year old,

If they can't read recipes, they can also get DLA that way. I have completely different disabilities to you Ash, but do have reading difficulties like you do.

Just interested. How did you get a University place with those attainment levels?
