My amazing news....

I just wanted to share my news.

I have received a letter telling me that I have been awarded esa and am in a support group.

I didn't have to have a medical! I was expecting lots of stress and no money. I thought it would be nice to put a positive blog on here about esa!

Hi, Thats fantastic new - I'm really pLeAsEd for you...

Please do use the CAB to do your DLA form for you... Have you got one - if not call DWP today and it will be stamped with todays date and any award you get will be dated from then...

Well Done - whatever we do or apply for is an unknown battle with an inconsistant outcome - which makes no logical sense at all... Xx

Fantastic news. I also get ESA and did have to have a medical. I was prepared for a fight and became very anxious but was relieved when the medical pracitioner who led the interview kept apologising about the questions she had to ask. Later when I had to go for an interview at the Job Centre plus as I was put in a work related group, the link person there was equally apologetic to me. It is not all doom and gloom.
