I'm currently confined to my living room .I had a fall down stairs 12 weeks ago giving myself 4 compound fractures. I've an external frame on the leg for 18 to 24 months. Seems I cannot get stair lift bathroom made into wet room grab rails to come into my home. List goes on. Would take over a year for any of these because work is so far behind because of covit19...ive to get 2 carers for half hour each a day
@£22.50 an hour....they can accomodate that immediately. Im very upset looking at same 4 walls 24/7 laying in a single bed that I'm unable to move in because of the size of the leg frame and the weight of it..I asked distric nurses about another mattres, well don't think that will happen. Look on their faces said it all. I'm totally lost, what I can have, what I cannot have to help me live indipendantly, just to be able to sleep upstairs in my big bed ..oh and have a shower would suffice. No chance of that.
My heart goes out to everyone who's disabled and struggling. High time British Government actually did something for the Disabled British People..
