Well fantastic news. I have been awarded Pip. Awarded the daily living component and the mobility component too. Backdated to January. Gets reviewed March 2021
Went to housing benefit to let them know as I awarded £13 a week help with our rent. And they have told me that I will now be getting £50 a week help. Backdated to February. Burst into tears when the lady told me. Not used to getting good news.
Would prefer not to have to rely on benefits and be healthy and go back to my old job.but unfortunately I can't so got to accept it.

Thanks sylvi I worked in a small pub for 12 years and loved it. My boss kept my job open as long as she could. But unfortunately it's just not going to happen. Got to adjust to my new life now unfortunately. XX
Well done on both counts but always remember you got what you deserve.We all would prefer our health but this was the card we have been dealt and need that help x
I felt as if everyone was against me. Esa said because I could use a pencil (took me 4 days to fill in there form as my hands got sore after a few words ) and can use a computer ( only for short time ) I am fit for work. So was expecting to get a letter saying I wasn't going to get P.I.P
Well they say things come in threes so maybe buy a lottery ticket this week Ann! I'm so pleased, every little helps so that's great you're getting extra help towards your rent too. Til 2021, that's brill too. Now.... relax. x
Actually had a game of Bingo online last night and won £50. Withdrew it straight away, just playing with the £10 that I started with now. So yes it does come in threes. Lol.
