Hi @Mandy58
Welcome to the community! Have you tried contacting them to ask if they have made a decision yet?Disability Gamechanger - 2019 -
No I have not because I don't know what the outcome maybe and I don't want them to think that I am bothering them and decided to turn me down i am so worried and nervous at the same time

Hello @Mandy58 Pleased to meet you.
Thank you for your post. Understand you are nervous. Every body has been through this situation.
I would advise if it were me to have some one else to call them. Do you have any support.?
There seems to be a lot of confusion. You are not bothering them. Please can I suggest contact some one like welfare rights or CAB for support.
You need reassurance and I can understand that, being anxious and nervous.
Hope that helps.
Take care
