Hy @danielle82 and a warm welcome to the community.

That sounds like a very stressful time for you, I'm sorry to hear that.
The best thing you can do with regard to the tribunal is just to try not to worry. Tribunals are a world away from DWP assessments, so try not to panic. Are you receiving any outside support for caring your your daughter?

Hi @danielle82

I hope you and your daughter have been okay! Just checking in to see how the appeal went and how things have been since this post?😊
