So sorry to hear the news of your mum, maybe you should get hold of them and explain what's happened so they can change the date for you? Massive hugs for you xx

Firstly I am so sorry for your loss. If your assessment is this afternoon I think they would probably accept your reason for cancelling. I had to change my appointment as it was just too far to travel and on the day my husband who I was reliant in to take me had to take his seriously ill brother to the hospital and they allowed that change.

They warned me that they usually don't allow another change but if he became terminally ill and we were told he was in his last days just before the assessment and I needed to be with him or he had just died they would consider a cancellation but the decision would have to go to a higher level to be decided upon.

If you just can't face it I would contact them and see what they say. Or you might want to go along and as I can imagine you are now emotionally frail as anyone would be that actually might go in your favour and it would be over and done with.

Good luck with whatever you decide, my thoughts are with you. If you have time and are up to it let us know how you get on.🌹x

I'm so sorry to hear that your mum has died My-chinaman . That's hard to cope with at any time of year and I understand your feelings of foreboding about your assessment, though I don't think it is helpful to make that sort of connection between the two.

You could perhaps defer your appointment but goodness knows how long it would take to get another. I hope you can put all else aside for the duration of the meeting and present your case successfully.

Gentle hugs xx

I am so sorry to hear your very sad news, I know you will be going around on auto pilot at the minute and I think it's awful you can't postpone your interrogation as you would forever wait on another. Try and get through it the best you can. My heartfelt thoughts are with you and your little girl.

Take care and good luck
