Hi, looking for advice on behalf of my SIL.
She's 28 and been declined for DLA, her medical background: severe chrones disease (all her bowl out, she has a colostomy bag) can't walk very far, keeps collapsing, anameic, suffers from depression. 11 year old daughter confirmed has mild chrones disease - both been refused. SIL had a baby at 24 weeks pregnant baby has just come off oxygen (he is now 1!) and has confirmed Chronic lung disease and he has also been refused. Welfare rights saw my SIL and she was amazed thatmDLA declined her. Are they really that strict? My *brother* (may I add that is a total waste of life) decided One day to not only defraud the benefit system (whilst getting a 4 bed house paid for and working two jobs cash in hand) to get DLA for "alcoholism" and " depression" (he didn't have none just being greedy. His story was he got caught. He pays back £1 a week out of his benefits) but just makes me mad when theirs genuine cases get declined and some scroungers get things on a plate! :mad:
