    Glad you got your award @Chris75_ .

    Its good that you got it .

    Last time i applied i was adimant i would fight it all the way .

    This time i dont feel as confident .

    I know the government want a crack down but i think they are cracking down on the wrong people .

    Whoever is in power wont ever get it right

    Like you said in an earlier post someone will claim for a bad back knowing full well they are scamming the system .

    Its just one big mess .

    If only there was someone who could get it right for once .

    Unfortunately we dont live in an ideal world .

    Same as those police who will never be punished for Hillsborough .

    Theres always gonna be people who get away with things

    It makes me puke

    My daughter read the letter they sent back to me and shes very intelligent @Chris75_ and she said there answers did not make any sense .

    I aint clever enough to figure it all out .

    I know there are places to contact to get help etc but as i say i was adament last time to persue it .

    But this time feels different so i just dunno .

    I will wait until Ive had my autism assessment and then see.

    Also it depends on my mental health too .

    I think at the end of the day they want more evidence

    Last time i ask the doctors surgery for my notes the ammount of paper they used to photocopy my medical notes must have taken ages .

    I dont think i am allowed to ask a second time .

    I know we can check them out ourselves but there is some stuff on my medical records that is very very sensitive and i dont want the Dwp to know about that issue .

    I feel like im wading through mud @Chris75_ .

    Its probably not worth it .

    You yourself are one of the genuine ones where it can be seen which is good in a respect for you @Chris75_ but living with any disability is difficult to live with .

    Its the people who say they have bad backs when they dont

    Thats what is irritating

    People with mental health can mask

    I know i do

    So they dont see us at our worst .

    We never know whats around the corner

    So maybe keep my chin up .

    I might just wait and see what happens with the Autism assessment @Chris75_ then decide

    That happens In Jan 2026

    New year

    New hope

    One big wish for me in the future @Chris75_ is to have a German Shephard

    It would be a help for getting me back out walking again and i would feel protected and safe while walking a dog like that .

    Fingers crossed i could have my wish

    I could sort out getting an appointment with Citizens advice at some point

    But ive had a pacemaker so im not sure if its really classed as vunerable now .

    I could still have a heart attack yes but with the pacemaker its probably gonna be a no lol

    Eastenders fan here ๐Ÿ˜

    Strawberry, it shouldn't be a fight to get your PIP back but you haven't improved, have you? I had to appeal most if not all my incapacity for work determinations.

    Shame on them for saying your heart problems aren't important! They are to you and your children. You'll get plenty of advice here and thank goodness your daughter recognises how absurd this is.

    Ps I got the boxes down from the cupboard. It's progress ๐Ÿ˜‰

    I love Eastenders @WhatThe .

    I dunno if ive improved or not @WhatThe .

    I possibly could have

    Thats maybe why Im not up to fighting this .

    Im glad you fought your case .

    Glad you got your boxes down

    Great news .

    Maybe any fight i had in me has gone @WhatThe .

    Thank you for your support , kindness and time .

    To be honest i dont think Im worth fighting for anymore anyway .

    It is what it is

    I am grateful @WhatThe

    I truly am .

    I had a dog many years ago @Chris75_ and ok it wasnt a pedigree but i did all the work in keeping her well trained

    I appreciate they are strong dogs highly intelligent

    Its a task i would be happy to set myself

    It would give me something to focus on .

    When i got my dog back in the day

    I got her bakers but ive seen a lot of dog foods advertised which look loads better than bakers .

    Ive heard so many good stories about staffies but unfortunately my dog was attacked by one and my dog was rushed to the emergancy vet

    I know not all staffies are the same but unfortunately its not the kind of dog i would like

    Dobermans or Rotties are a favourite of mine too

    I will keep in mind the info about the food though .

    Cheers for giving me the info though its gratefully appreciated .

    I wont be getting a dog yet

    Id rather wait for better weather easier to house train then .

    At the moment its a dream

    But they say dreams come true @Chris75_ so watch this space

    Thanks again

    And wishing you many happy days with Gus

    Best wishes always
