PIP why do they make it so hard?

Today we had the answer to whether or not my son was going to be put back on enhanced mobility . They put my appeal letter on the wrong pile! I decided to phone after not hearing anything for five months. it was then that I was told it was on the wrong pile .the argument is because he can walk for upto 200 metres .At the end of the day he still has cerebral palsy and has continuous pain when walking . He has had 3 operations on his Hemi leg from tendon transfer to major reconstruction to his foot.He wears an AFO all the time but I feel none of this is taken into consideration . I have been asked to write a diary for when he is struggling and in pain .He has had cerebral palsy since birth and very complains of pain .I'm sure some of you can relate to this .All I want is the best for my son so he can have independence and support he needs . sorry for the moan needed to vent somewhere .
