    You can send any evidence you want to but as previously advised if it doesn't state extactly how your conditions affect you then is it worth sending it, only you can answer that.

    I asked about this elsewhere and they said it isn't without risk but very unlikely they'll remove daily living. I wrote to them and asked them to just look at mobility as I was given enhanced daily living but zero mobility. I clearly told them I was just asking for a MR for mobility.

    Hi poppy I seem to be clinging on to my MR
    I suffer with very bad anziety mentally and physical, the assesor wrote because I can take my daughter to school and back in a taxi I can follow and plan a journey although I told her how I am through those journeys,  the DM took this into account on making her decision .So in the MR I have explained that I havent got a choice to make those journeys when my son isn't available to do so, I have explained that because my sons school attendance was low because of my anziety I ended up been summoned to court with a fine, if I don't make those journeys my daughter won't have an education and that my children could end up with a mother in prison if they don't attend, I also don't have any neighbours that go to the same school , I don't know if I should go into much detail as I have with the truth or should I keep it short, I just don't know what to put down for the best, I simply don't have a choice but to carry out those journeys and go through the anziety when I do.

    Although I can’t find out I think there is some case law which confirms that because a parent can do something for their child this should’ve not be taken as evidence that they’ve can do it for themselves. The sense of parental duty is effectively a prompt to do something but a person may have no motivations to do the same thing if alone.

    You can certainly make that a simple an argument.

    Sorry, not been feeling so good and have spent very little time on the community in the past couple of days.
    I agree with calcotti here, just because you take your daughter to school (which you have no other choice) doesn't mean you can do other things for yourself.
