Hope it all works out for you. I just can't understand why these things are so difficult and stressful for claimants. Surely the system should be simpler than that.Have adventures. laugh a lot and always be kind.0

It seems like they have to fight for every penny they are entitled to.The system is not stacked in favour of the claimant sadly.Have adventures. laugh a lot and always be kind.0
