As I have gotten older and more and more infirm, I increasingly struggle to get my medications open. It is called Child proofing them, but there are no children in my house, other than my dog, and my medication is stored in a medical cabinet, I find it really annoying that because of other people who have kids, the rest of…

My wife/carer has been given an appointment at hospital next Thursday for the results of a cancer blood test - (she's been bleeding from her cervix recently) ! It probably is not menopause related - that was over a few years ago…….. I just hope that it is caused by something else and not cancer.

hello my name is Noura I’m mum of 15 years old boy with disability

I don't usually say "Hello" when I join a forum: I lurk about for a bit, then jump in with both feet... But here they presented me with the post already started which made me think twice, and the nature of the place led me to think that maybe I ought to this time. I am, as an old friend used to describe me as "Wired up…

I'm enquiring I need to exchange my vehicle again as my condition is getting worse would it be better if I have my consultant write a letter confirming this

I heard via text today from dwp that my PIP review has been completed and I should hear via letter the result. I've spent a lot of today crying cos when I first applied for it back in 2022 I had to fill in a much more extensive form plus have an assessment. To me this sounds like a refusal. What do others think?

Hello, I’m wondering if it’s strange for UC to do a review 4 months after the last review? Everything was fine then and nothing has changed so I don’t understand why they are doing another review so soon.. They’ve asked for housing proof even though my housing association have confirmed me and my wife live in their…
