To our new house!!!!!

Oh its lovely, its got a big front room and a large bay windown and massive kitchen/diner a long drive for the dog (and dS) to run up and down, a bathroom on the first floor -bliss, its just really nice.

The decor however is awful i actually rang the houseing officer up and said are you going to do anything about the decorating especially the kitchen cos its minging!!!!! he has given us a £25 voucher-BIG DEAL!!!!

OT are coming around to do an asessment, i was told today that i can ask for a shower for DS, as refuses to get in the bath and he is unsafe in it anyway cos he jumps up and down but that ive got to prove that its needed medically.

How on earth i do that i dont know, anyone any tips?

Dead excited!!!!

Oh and we got a letter saying we have been approved for a Blue Badge YIPPEEEE

That is great news, Hope you and your family will be happy there. To prove that you need a shower can maybe be done by explaining how your DS can and will hurt himself when he slips in the bath. And how slippery he gets and you won't be able to hang on to him. But I am sure the OT will write a report and explain the situation

Hoped this was you Jenk. Hooray!
As for the shower issue, yet another situation where services haven't caught up with the increase in non-physical disabilities. Its time they woke up, its just discrimination, grrrr.
