Hi should have gone to PIP assessment yesterday however 1hour before my appointment they informed me that the asseser had gone home sick , I was furious after anxiaty and stress this PIP has caused I have to wait a further 2weeks for another appointment , my Son had traveled 500 Miles to accompany me . I was awarded my DLA for life by a tribunal as many people on this site were I am 68 years old with COPD Ostoarthitis Diabetic and have a L5 herniated disk and Sciatica in severe pain constantly , it's disgraceful they way disabled people are discriminated against its always the working class who they target I for one have had enough after working all my life I am going to fight back wether I am awarded or not starting with phone call to the Assesers Services Office also my Son who is a Psychotherapist is ringing as well I will keep you posted after my visit to my local MP.
