VERSION|0.5.1|SUBJECT|Motability turned down|CONTENT|You might recall a few weeks ago that they [url=http://www.platitudes.org.uk/platblog/index.php?entry=entry130417-095326]took Terry&#039;s Motability vehicle away[/url]. He then had to go for two examinations on the same day at the same location to see if he would get a replacement.

The answer is &quot;no.&quot; 

They have judged that he can walk unaided, despite the fact that he mostly uses an electric buggy to get around; that he can use the stairs, despite the fact that we moved house so that he didn&#039;t have to; that he can cook his own meals, despite the fact that I do all the cooking; that he can dress unaided, despite the fact that I often have to help him dress.

They were told all this at the examinations. It was exactly the same information as they had at all the previous examinations. They&#039;ve completely ignored all the medical evidence that we provided them with.

We therefore have to start off on the appeals process (which we&#039;ve won every single time they&#039;ve judged him fit in the past).

I&#039;ve told Terry to stop being selfish. The country has to reduce its expenditure so it can pay for the banks.|CATEGORIES|11|IP-ADDRESS|94.168.119.214|CREATEDBY|admin|DATE|1368801790
