    can not see why your mother in law could not, as you can do your own case in court

    No one will be able to speak on your behalf during your hearing. They will want to hear from you how your conditions affect you, in your own words. Sometimes they will ask the person that with you at the end if there's anything they want to add but this doesn't always happen. Any extra evidence you have should be sent to arrive no later than 10 days before the hearing but ideally it should be sent as soon as possible. Good luck.
    I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.
    If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.

    Good luck mine should of been on the 30th but was postponed as there was no doctor available to sit on the panel. So im back to waiting stress levels are so bad i now have really high blood pressure. Im not worried about going to the hearing just stressed waiting for a new date. I hope i hear soon just want to get it over and done with. I hope your appeal goes well.
