.......when life starts to settle does something happen out of the blue to tip it all upside down again?
I don't post about our problems often as I try to keep up beat but to cut a long story short 2 of my 3 children have special needs. My eldest has a medical condition which we finally claimed DLA for in may, he rightfully got awarded high rate care and low rate mobility. He's had a really rough year and his mobility has worsened so I appealed to raise it to high rate. Just recieved a letter today to say they were withdrawing the whole lot!!! Why? some idiot has filled in a totally false statement saying my son can care for his personal needs, has no disability and is the same as any other 10 yr old......how much would I like that to be true?! Now I'm trying to find out who has actually said this and no-one will admit filling in another form! I'm in a right state....its going to put our finances into turmoil and I've had a panic attack again (not had one for a few months)
Sorry to rant but I really needed to write it down and get some of this off my chest
