With regards to benefits relating to health problems - I have an heriditary disease which has led in the last few years to heart attack, dialysis, organ transplant, and diabetes due to the anti-rejection drugs. However, fortunately, I am still pretty mobile and only really incapacitated to a degree by unpredictable extreme tiredness and infections, which makes working not very viable (and tbh I have already exceeded my life expectation by about 5 years already, so do not feel terribly inclined to spend the (hopefully long ) time left doing casual work - my choice).

Thank you all again.

Best Regards

What great news for you. Let's hope that you and your wife can enjoy many happy years of retirement together.

If you haven't had a full review of your potential benefit income it might be worth asking your local Citizen's Advice to take a look. Sometimes they can find things that people just didn't know about.
