- My son went through a 15 month assessment process which was highly stressful for him before being diagnosed with #autism for #myDLA
“A clinically diagnosed debilitating neuro condition which is for life should be enough evidence. Anything more is bullying. #myDLA
“I might learn to better live with my impairments, but I will always be impaired. Removing #myDLA does not magically make me independant!
“Took me 2 years to get #myDLA in the first place. I had to appeal up as far as Commissioner for Social Security. Fortunately I'm assertive.- “#myDLA lifts me to a point where I'm independant enough to seem fine, whereupon I lose eligibility for DLA...
- “reasessment of perminant conditions, IE blindness, deaf blind etc is pointless #myDLA
- “Without #myDLA I would not have been able to hold down a job as would have had no transport. Would cost more in other benefits.
- “DLA is often key in allowing disabled people to work. Without it, I fear many would not be able to. Is that what people want? #myDLA
- “paper evidence works in some cases because it comes from those who know, consultants and experts, #myDLA
- “Atos "Dr" said my Parkinson's Disease tremors were just anxiety & that got #myDLA removed. 2 years & 3 humiliating tribunals to get it back
- “If claiming #dla is so easy, then how come my Dad had to jump through hoops & sadly die from pancreatic cancer before he was awarded #myDLA
- “#MyDLA goes towards personal assistants to keep me independant age 25. wen i go into hosp its stops..my bills & my isolation however don't!!
- “DLA does not pay for all extra costs disabled people face - but it helps & that is why it is VITAL & can be life-altering. #myDLA
- “I won't get better. I WILL get worse, I've (begrudgingly) accepted that. Constant form filling & ritual humiliation doesn't help. #myDLA
- “#myDLA is just enough to keep my widowed mum/carer+I alive. I had to fight as they said being bedbound with a neuro disease didnt entitle me
- “#myDLA gives dignaty, gives sense of independence. the new PIP would lead to dependence.
- “#myDLA My daughter was a student. She had to wait nearly six months for DLA after being diagnosed with cancer. She died six weeks later.
- “#mydla My wife was left in constant pain after a routine operation caused nerve damage.There is no cure.DLA helped buy her mobility scooter.
- “taken me 4 weeks to fill in #mydla form sent in so much extra paperwork just in hope of getting it expect to have a medical not an easy ride
- “#mydla Without DLA, all three of us would never leave the house and her depression would have robbed her of the will to live.
- “#mydla provides a motability car leased from the scheme. It also provides for extra costs related (cont) tl.gd/e4enai
- “@lindylou120 It's such a SOULLESS process to have to go through & now the Media are just piling on the pain #myDLA
- “Its bad enough being diagnosed w/a disabling condition but then having to justify why you need help is soul destroying + humiliating #myDLA
- “Ppl who think it's easy to claim should read the form I filled in for #myDLA - how it feels to fill in, and consider I only got lower rate
