Good luck with all the job interviews, melly.
I am reading everyone's posts and nodding, cheering, hugging etc as I go along, and waving at welly.:heartsmil When you find people who not only tolerate your quirks but celebrate them with glad cries of "Me too!" be sure to cherish them. Because these weirdos are your true family.0 -
I need a kick up the backside. I have a to do list that'll keep me going all week and no motivation today whatsoever, mainly because it consists of lots of things I don't want to do.
I think I'll be alright when I get going. If I ever do get going. Bleurgh.
Hope everyone's having a better Monday than me.All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.
Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.0 -
Very much could have written that elsien. Am literally staring at the list right now... and not doing any of it.
Ok peeps... line up for some backside kicking for the pair of us0 -

Decision has been made on PIP
No one can open it tho and it 7-10 days for the letter to turn up.
Shall we take bets on whether I shall have to take it to appeal? I'm saying yes0 -
They have called me back
Yep appealing same decision despite evidence showing that even using their report he should have the mid rate.
Oh well0 -

Melly,
Massive hugs (((((melly))))) please do try and get some help with the appeal.
I filled my husbands forms in all by myself and used the forums here to glean bits and pieces.
He had just come out of hospital after 3 and half months and had non functioning hand and could hardly walk and they said lower rate care. I was :mad: but I was grateful he was getting anything so left it alone.
Good luck with the interviews this week.
Yours

Hopefully floating support can help.
She's here sat so can do it then.
I knew we would have to because they want people to either give up or die.
Hoped we wouldn't need to tho0 -

I know that they make it very hard now. A few years ago my husband was kicked off and I think I mentioned before he went to a law centre who got him it back on appeal.
What annoys me is that you can't fake having a stroke. He has MRI's and probably at least a tree worth of notes. But oh no got to fill in million sodding forms.
He will be a burden on the NHS and DWP for the rest of his life. Because the NHS did not pull there finger out and decide what was wrong and treat him. Which could have stopped or made the stroke less severe.
Makes me so mad when people are really ill and you can see it. But no lets put them through lots of stress and hassle.
I know we need to make the books balance but for flipping hecks sake. Lets not target the disabled and vulnerable.
Sorry a bit of rant there.
Yours
