A lady is on her way to help me with these dreaded forms. She is late which is good as i had more time to get ready.

I hope she can help me but i am so nervous and i dont know why.

She sounds lovely on the phone, so i hope she is nice. She does this for a living and does it day in day out.

Well better go and get sorted.

I will let you all know how i get on.

hugs, kelxxx

Last time I went to CAB all they did was go through the form and and talk over the questions with me. I was told they could do no more as it had to be in my own words and they didn't have the time to write it for me :(

A friend of mine was told she couldnt have DLA, she got her daughter to write a letter about her condition and got it on appeal. No problem, obviously worth doing if they refuse you.

Good luck jazher - a tip I was given years ago when it was a lot easier to get DLA was to describe every day as my worst day. They've got round this with the "it various" tick box. So when I get mine turned down and have to appeal, I take my two worst days and say it varies between them!
