  • Thank you everyone for your kind words of support. Fudgie what a lovely thing to say :A.

    Today has been better :D. I didn't think it would be thanks to the soul destroying experience of sitting waiting to be seen in the Job centre this morning though. The alcohol fumes burned my nostrils and the air was blue as blokes f'd and blinded about having to get out of bed to sign on at such a ridiculous time (10.15am!!). Thankfully, we'd managed to leave the boys with MIL! Anyway, not only did the paperwork reach the person who needed it, but our claim was ammended today and we have £134 back dated money winging it's way to us :D.

    Further to that we got a call from DLA asking a few more questions and they said we will hear within 10 days the outcome of that. Fingers crossed.

    Tonight we had my sister and MIL over for dinner and then my Mum came along later after she'd finished work. It was good having everyone together and then DH and MIL took the boys trick or treating. They have brought back at least as much as I gave out if not more!

    Scan again for me in the morning. Keep everything crossed for me please Xx

    It's not too difficult, I've had quite a bit of practice doing the cross legged thing, normally when I've hung on almost too long to get to the toilet :eek:

    I hope DLA get back to you with a favourable decision. Great news about the back payment too.

    Fingers crossed here too for your scan, Be Lucky.
  • Scan wasn't clear :( . Still some 'stuff' in there. We've left it that I have another scan next week but can ring at any time to book myself in for a d&c or medicated procedure. Is it daft that I'm scared of having a d&c??? Xx
