I may go and see if I can get extra help as I am struggling. My GP wanted me to go on the sick because my iron levels have dipped low. Not helping im on again. I think I need help to get to and from hospital appointments and help around the house.

These departments seem to have no qualms sending disabled people threatening letters.

Even when people are in hospital or only just out.

They treat disabled people as if they are able bodied. So do local councils.

There seems to be no allowance made for disabilty either mental or phsical or both.

I can't believe there are people out there who enjoy tormenting the unfortunate. But it has been suggested.

Not what you're looking for?
