@Louboo09 the wait is awful isn't it. Hopefully not much longer now 🤞

mumtumok · 25/11/2023 05:39

Absolutely nothing to do with DLA but does anybody know of a device or fitting structure that goes of bathroom taps so that children can’t turn them on ?

@Mumof3specialkids I'm scan date 26/7 yhr wait is literally killing me off! I feel like stalk my post lady she comes at 9.10am everyday without fail and I watch her walk up the path posting everyone's letters I get so excited if she walks up mine but actually feel anger towards her if she just walks past with no post for me 🤣 I check my bank which feels like 83837 times a day! I've always got tons of unopened texts but I check my texts god knows how many times a day incase I've missed one, I'm hoping to have time to call nonday morning if not it will be Wednesday morning bang on 18wks

Scan date 14/8 last text 7/11 just following keeping up with the dates ect ... rang couple weeks ago just to inform them the school was putting my lb forward for the additional needs school ... as he's not coping very well in mainstream ... hes 5 and has asd autism .. such a happy bright little guy who just loves animals and minecraft ... this wait has been awful :( ... would just like to see the end of it ...
I really think we will get declined tho ... as only evidence I've sent in is from the school ... echp and they signed it for me ... he has his own T.A in school and has one to one care ... doesn't like to be out of routine and can't be left alone ... no sense of danger.. plus wakes a good few times a night

Fingers crossed for some news next week 🤞

StephXx1 · 24/11/2023 21:22

I’m exactly a week after you ! I think we will hit the Christmas shut down etc! So more than likely middle of Jan I’m guessing!!

funinthesun19 · 24/11/2023 21:04

Scan date 24th August. Last text 21st November.

Probably another 5ish weeks to go yet. Maybe longer with it being the Christmas/New Year period around the time it might go to a DM.

Following on from previous thread!

Louboo09 · 24/11/2023 20:42

Same scan date as me, all I keep thinking about but I’m holding off calling, I honestly thought I would’ve heard this week x

Zdjekkq · 24/11/2023 20:41

Scan date 2nd August, last text 31st October.
hoping it’s not too much longer😩

Louboo09 · 24/11/2023 20:39

I don’t want to ring cause I’ll feel deflated if it’s a decline, at the time wen I put the form in I didn’t have much to say but now her mental health part has took a real knock, and there’s a lot more to it but I believe it’s too late to mention it x

Looloo12332 · 24/11/2023 20:39

Scan date 14/08 I'm hopeing to hear soon as I cant cope but in reality it's going to be 4 weeks minimum

Watso2408 · 24/11/2023 20:36
