What do we do now?
Hi,
Could you tell me whether my brother can have his PIP reassess because they have got it totally wrong i.e. He can wash his bottom half of his body but not his top half, he has never been able wash himself. Also amogest other discrepancies he can cook with assistance, I got no idea where this come from because he cannot stand unaided for long by himself or with a carers help The only things he can do for himself is drink through a straw and only if it place in front of him and also can control his laptop with a special joystick and an on screen keyboard. He has 24/7 care. I cannot understand how somebody who came to assess my brother could get it so wrong. As he has cerebral palsy and has had this condition since birth also he has epilepsy.
Many thanks,
Jackie
