My sons DLA runs out in November and I sent of renewal form and documents today. He has ASD and severe learning difficulties. He currently gets low rate Mobility and middle care. I empahasized on the form that he has refusal episodes to walk, they are because of his ASD and not a choice of his or naughty behaviour and he is prone to running away. I am a little worried that what it says on the paediatric report will stop his mobility. It says he is independently mobile but has absolutely no awareness of danger and must be constantly supervised, and needs guided because of sensory problems. It also confirms his sleep and toileting issues and that we have to attend to him at night. I’ve never disputed on the form that he CAN walk physically, there’s no physical reason stopping him being able to but his ASD makes it very very stressful and difficult to get around some times. I am really panicking that this will stop us getting his DLA now. We couldn’t survive without it as I have had to give up work to care for him and I go through clothes bedding and electric like you wouldn’t believe!
