Hi, guys, I had my phone call for filling my pip form in , it's long-form to fill in ? I am to put in my specialist that deals with me being paralysed down the right side, and my eye specialist she said that I can put more in but it won't make a difference, because it's how disabilities affect your daily life. And mobility which I don't have any as I can't walk, so it's just sitting back and waiting now to see if need a assessment,
