Hi Guys! Yes that horrible brown envelope came through my letterbox earlier last week. My darling OH opened it and read out the decision...... I've been awarded Higher Rate Mobility and Middle Rate Care, and it's awarded for life!! That's exactly what it was before it hasn't changed!!

The thing is what we are confused about 6 years ago when I reapplied for DLA after the 3years I had it awarded for before that. I was awarded the Higher Rate Mobility and Middle Rate Care for Life then.(Are you still with me? :? :lol: ) So why make me fill in the same forms again? And will that be in my favour when we are changed over to PIP in 2015? (If it's still going then!!). Strange hey!!!!
