i've just had to explain LVAD to DLA.

[misdee]

'how long is he attached to the machine for'

errrr permantly. 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. i bet they still stop his award tho

Bl**dy DLA. I don't understand how people with so little medical knowledge are in charge of deciding who should be given extra help. Grrr!

they are sending the information across to the dept, they wil lwrite if they need extra information. i bet i have to fill in thoise forms, if i do i am just doing the red one.

I can just imagine them scratching their heads misdee.

It's a bloody joke. Tell them to Google it and see what they come up with.......
