Dla tribunal help
Comments

hi well just tell them straight you can not get there there will have to come to youI have my dla tribunal next week. FRU cannot get anyone to represent me and I am terrified. It is in Sutton on thursday so if anyone can help please do.
I am in constant pain with sjogren's and fibromyalgia, tmj, raynaulds. I cannot write with a pen as it is too painful. I have to try and put eyedrops in but am now finding difficulty- my 6.5yr old helps me- she also helps me out of bed every morning. She puts my drops in first, moves my legs out and then puts my hand near the lever. I hold it and she pushes me up. During the night I cannot move as my body lock and feel so frightened. I do get direct payments and social services believe I am entitled, as does my gp...
I have someone who takes my daughter to school as I struggle. I cannot walk without pain and my eyes get blurred- I am on morphine patches but the max.
Any help is appreciated at this terrifying time.0 -

Torry Quine never said the right type.

the poster should be entitled to DLA (unless they are someone like you. Yep you know what you are and it's really sad:sad:)0 -
