Lynda She need to apply soon rather than later because the paperwork takes ages then theres an assessment. However, once it's approved it opens the door to other types of help she'd be entitled to. She'll have to ask though because they don't give you the information. Sheila

Dear Karen Thanks so much for replying, I really do appreciate it. I'm really sorry you are going through such a bad time, I hope that you are on the up very soon. I know that Kath has these awful times dropping things as well. I'm hoping they can get her medication sorted out, she was really frightened when she fell so ill on the last combination and very wary about going on to others. She gets tearful and angry too, although she tries to hide it when I phone. Other times she tries to be very positive. She is going to find out about Mobility and we are looking into all the financial and Social Services aspect. In fact the whole family is helping right now. Thank you for your offer of contact, She doesn't have a computer, but maybe it would be nice to have some contact, I will see what she thinks, even if it's via yours truly. Kath is very much into hugs!!! I will pass yours on and I know she would send one back to you, as I do. God bless you Lynda xx
