[MissRedd]

Hi,

I created a new thread as the old one is reaching its limit.

@Shellbel10 I had this problem so I recorded the melt downs I did that with out my child knowing I was doing it I did this for a full week went to the school Monday morning and said now you tell me my child doesn't mask at school they was shocked !!! But they soon helped

Any update yet

Hi guys how.long it normally with dm for x

Hi all, scan date 10th August. Phoned this morning. Said it should be soon as been 13 weeks. Got a text to say he qualifies two hours later. Hope this helps.

That’s great news @Nags7815 what evidence did you send in

Thank you @Shellbel10 I sent occupational therapist report, neurology specialist report and school Sen report. He got mrc and lrm till Oct 2025.

Fab news!

Still no decision yet 3rd Aug x

Rang again been awarded Middle rate care for 2 years scan date 11th august x

Can I ask what evidence you sent in xx I'm still waiting it's with dm since Monday 3rd Aug scan date x

Scan date of 19th July for me. Still no decision as of yet, the waiting is awful!

Is urs a new claim? I'm waiting from 3rd Aug and apparently been with dm since Monday phones earlier and was told still being looked at did u send any evidence in aswell xx

Yeah it’s a new claim. I sent diagnosis letter and copy of a letter from a counsellor that was sent to school.
I have claimed for my other 2 children and did not send any evidence with those as I did not have any at the time and both was awarded previously.

This is the first time posting after following this thread for a while. My scan date is 10th august. Today I called for an update and was told that a decision had been made but the system hadn’t updated with the result and promised to give me a ring once it had. True to his word he rang and told me that my grandson ( he lives with me ) had been awarded HRC and LRM for ADHD.. other than the claim forms I sent absolutely no evidence whatsoever. I did however give contact information for his paediatrician and school for confirmation of diagnosis and EHCP. Hope this is a bit of clarification and hope for others still waiting

@Domimo79 congratulations! Gives me
Hope mine will be soon I'm the 11th!
Ringing now to see if any updates

@Domimo79 my scan date is 10th and I’m in the phone queue too haha

@Gemma96x i only sent the behavioural assessment done my the health visiting team x

I phoned to see if my extra evidence was received, as I sent it in yesterday next day delivery. The Evidence was confirmed AC diogenes.
It went to DM yesterday and awarded yesterday. She told me on the phone around 3.30pm. HRC and LRM. I happy and glad the wait is over. Good luck everyone.

SCAN DATE: 10TH AUG

I feel like my sons not going to get it 3rd Aug still waiting x

I just got off the phone. No update for me yet other than will have a decision by end of next week.... he said there is no overtime staff this weekend so it will most likely be next week! Fingers crossed this waiting is driving me insane ! People that have heard from the 10th is giving me hope next week is accurate!

I got cut off twice after waiting 40
mins each time. Will try again in the morning

That's good news for you. I hope my evidence is enough x

Ok that's give me abit off hope I think it's depends on who's desk it lands on aswell tbh xx

I just sent my son autism diagnosis report and told them over phone school senco contact details and my sons next peadatric appointment to talk about possibly medication for sleep time and nothing else. I spoke to a lady yesterday on the phone and asked if u have anymore info which I don't have anything else so with her saying that over the phone it don't look great the xx

That's great. I'm not sure if I done enough but I tried my best x
