Broken Knuckle Replacements.

Well I finally have a decision on what is going to happen..... All my replacements on left had are having to be re done after xmas, slightly scared but also happy that I will hopefully be out of pain soon. On a down note I've had my decision from pip and though I can have the care component I can no longer have the mobility part which when it was DLA I was awarded for life. They just twisted what we said, feel so depressed, How can they change the rules like this and ruin peoples lives, keep crying and really could do without another thing to battle. I totally understand why people take there own lives now.

I was awarded the care component flat for life many years ago. I met the criteria then, and have gradually worsened. I haven't yet been asked to apply for PIP, but know I won't get it!

its awful how they are treating us, they ask questions that are impossible to answer and when you try they stop your money.. I was asked how long can you walk without stopping I sad maybe 1-2 mins and they recon I could walk 80 meters in that time with my stick. took me that long from car into office and that was about 5 meters then I needed to sit down. its just not right. Good luck when you go for yours
