Hi, my daughter is on middle rate DLA, she turns 16 and I’m worried she won’t be accepted. She had a stroke 5 years ago. List movement on her right side. Also got aphasia ( lost ability to read and write also numbers. She can walk short distances with the help of a foot splint. What’s the chances of her qualifying?
