Hi everyone
I have just got back my DLA award ,and good news i think ,Quite apart from everyone i had dealt with up to now, and having been told how really bad my condition was and would get much worse sooner rather than later, and the graphic explanations of what to expect in the very near future ,Well all is, not lost ,despite never having met me and arriving at there descision after consulting with my doctors and others ,i have been awarded the lower rates ,does this mean i am not going to progress as i was told and do not need as much help as i was advised i would, Am i missing something here ,because up to now ,it has been only bad news with anything regarding MND, but it seems there are levels set within the Benefits System known only to them working in the system that we are all allocated points, and that determines what rate we get awarded ,Now as i remember back MND was never described to me as being mild ,or troublesome, or severe ,the only word was Terminal . Can someone tell me why this can be such a lottery, look forward to Hearing your dealings with this Benefit.
