Chronic Pain Doesn't Show!
Chronic Pain Doesn't always Show, just because I don't look disabled, don't assume I'm NOT!

An Attack From the DWP
Had an appointment with the DWP today who accused me of hiding X amount of money after I have admitted having a Personal Injury Trust with 3 times X in it.
Since X was part of the Industrial injury settlement, if I had it, it would be in the Trust.
A personal injury trust allows me access to the money when required, so why hide anything.
Then just to top it all of, they asked and made me sign a form to confirm that my friend and carer, who lives in the same house, is not my civil partner nor are we in a relationship.
Who the F&^% do they think they are. How dare they ask such an insulting question.
I find the question Insulting as my friend, who has lived with me as an unpaid carer since 2008, has put up with my bad days, the days I am so depressed I can't get off the sofa, made sure I'm fed, the laundry done, the sheets changed and my grumpy pissed off at life days, for No Pay, just a grateful friend who says "Thank You". Then the DWP Decision Maker, who has never met either of us, decides we must be a gay couple to question my Income Based ESA eligibility.
This is not a discussion on if I am entitled to Employment and Support Allowance, this is a direct attack against Me by a Decision Maker.
I can only assume they are upset about the fact my local MP is actually doing a good job on my behalf.
Thanks to him I have gone from Fit to Work to the WRAG Group, should be in the Support Group, but one step at a time.
My MP has now Involved Lord Freud on the case.
So that's how my day is going, hows yours?
