Morning Diddle , yes all due to illness, fibro me osteoarthritis, the list is now long and endless, 7 operations for different things in 7 years, worn down and worn out, However my concern is the way we are treated by the benefits people, they treat people like us we are scroungers and make feel even worse because we cannot work. I cannot remember when or ever been treated so badly by a government department. :( xxx
