Just got back the assessment details in full as i want this to help with my appeal and i'm totally gobsmaked at the lies and twisted sentences in this report. It is like reading about another person.

After a lifetime of arther, eight years of DLA mobility are coming to an end with an application for PIP. It took me many years to get my head around applying for DLA and admiting I have a disability. In some ways I almost want to fail rather than admit I am not as able as I should be, I have a very strong sense of being…
