Hi, I havent been on the site for a couple of weeks much as i have been feeiing sorry for myself.
I have spent most of it going to meetings about being retired on ill health and filling in forms, filling in the DLA form, filling in podiatry forms and consents, physio forms and consents, ot forms and consents, I'm sick of blooming forms!!!
But maybe its worth it in the long run, got the horrid dla form result back after 7 days and got high mobility and care rate Phew that will help, and now doing the employment and pension ill health retirement form but got a good help on the questions site here thankfully.
Hope this all sorts itself out as im so sore and stressed with it all. Cant believe I was climbing mountains and working just over a year ago.....
love Axx

Allannah, Your going forward even if it is slow and demanding and frustrating for you. Think at the end of it all you'll be retired and you can rest when you like do jobs,play,swim or whatever you want to do. Set yourself a little goal of something you would really like to do when you have the time and plan to do it when you get there. It will helpo keep you bouyont while your going through this process.
I'm pleased that you got your dla sorted at least you know you can rely on that coming in every month.
I have recently gone thru the whole form filling thing myself, my poor hands, really made me realise I was doing the right thing. I had separate files for everything, and was virtually a full time job keeping it all collated & photocopying everything, then follow up phone calls etc!!!
So I entorely understand. I have closed a couple of files now as things move along, you can only try eh?
