Ds had his dla increased

[2boysnamedR]

Just want to say how handy it was keeping a diary for ds over the year. Also thinking in a quite focused way about his bed wetting and how things should be progressing but aren't. It's not a huge increase but its going to buy all the extra incountenance things he needs and enable me to think about making plans on how we can move forward in that area.

Keep diaries mummy's!

Still it was very hard to write and I hate hate hate doing it. But it's changing his life having the money for all sorts of things he needs

Diaries are wonderful things when you need to get a point across, either for official reasons or as a wake up call to yourself. I don't keep one all the time, but I kept one for the entire time DS1 was in year 4, and again earlier this year in what would have been the run up to tribunal, when his mental health went into a bit of a nose dive.

Well done on getting the increase. We spend a lot of ours on supplementing the massive NHS nappies with pull ups that DS2 actually likes wearing and can try to change a little more independently.

I can't help on the NHS with his bed wetting until he is over seven - if then! So I pay for all his pull ups. Then there are the ten changes of bedding, incontanance sheets, washing, drying etc. Hopefully the NHS will see him about it before he hits 13...
