some might remember back in january i put a claim into the carers allowance for misguidance of my claim going back to 2007 as they advised me wrongly about what i was entitled to. well they have finally admitted that the information that they had given at the time of my claim was inccorect and i have been awarded. this meens that i can now get my wife the chair she is so despratly needing. so thank you special payments departmant. its taken 10 months but its been worth it :D

thanks guys. i was saving up for one but it would have been next years christmas by the time i got the funds together. the wife is over the moon at the news. i know its not exciting for most peoples but when these things can cost around £2k for a MTM then its a fair whack to save especially when your on benifits. ooohhh and if people are wondering why i havent gone and got one on credit then try it when you are in my position... the computer says nooooo.

Never let the barstewards grind you down.
Never saw you as a sidecar man though " get my wife the chair " ;)

BTW its not for an electric wheelchair, its for an electric riser chair as Lorna can only use one arm and leg so getting in out out of a chair is well ermm difficult to say the least. couple this with the weight gain due to not being able to exercise and its a recipe for accidents. being as short as me means that we can't go out and get an OTS one as the seat hight is to high, so it has to be MTM.

happy days :-)

Glad to see the fortunes are smiling your way!
Overdue I'd say.
Hope you enjoy it to the fullest!

Good to read some happy news at last mate.

How long before you "tweak" the chair to rise up quicker?
