Just wanted to thank you all; I lost the post in the huge amount of other posters finding themselves in similar predicaments (sadly), I have been to the CAB (yes there are debts too), have also qualified for legal aid to address the debts (blimey its so scary), ESA has not been paid and i am limping by on half pay and wtc / ctc. The union will address the situation with work once my pay has stopped altogether (work still cant decide if my ssp will be withdrawn on dec 28th or in march?), the union are talking about a compromise agreement - basically i am paid to keep my mouth shut on the way i was treated rather than take work to a tribunal! OH still having the spasms - he had a really bad one the other day just as we were about to go the debt advice centre in the cab - we had to decide A&E or debts; we chose debts and wait for another spasm to strike. My neurology appt is next week - day to day living becomes more difficult, living with virtually no memory is so hard! I dont feel quite so down today - but that comes and goes too. Daughter with ASD is not doing too bad atm which is great.... ok so life is difficult for us with her problems but at least she is not hurting herself and has actually smiled once or twice in the last week! Roll on neurology appt - really hoping for some answers but thankyou again to all that replied - i was in such a dark and lonely place when i posted that and seriously thought everyone would be better off without me here to complicate matters, luckily my insight has improved somewhat and i can see thats not true now. x
