The phone rang!!!

Update time ….. so my phone rang just after lunch today…. it was to ask if I could be available for my home PIP assessment on Friday…. as usual I was Monday mode …. so thought that’s fine …. not like I’ve got anything on my busy schedule… I checked my diary… all clear…

plenty of time to rake through my life …. so I said yes it’s fine … but just need to write down details as I’ve a memory like a goldfish….. so Friday… plus name of person calling…. plus what I need to prove who I am … so asked if blue badge was appropriate as it’s got my picture on … yup that’s ok…. plus need something with my address on … lots of letters from the DWP….

Oh yes telephone number if I need to ring them for any reason…. all written down… unfortunately I’m a bit sketchy on the old appointment time …. so I’m going with middle of the day …

the chap I spoke to was very polite and helpful… as I’ve said all the contact has been good… it wasn’t until I put the phone down did I realise it was Wednesday… so less than 48 hours notice…. not a problem actually….

Plus I realised they had given me a home assessment… another plus point….

I wasn’t going to do this blog until after my assessment… but thought it might be better to do this now…. this process is having a detrimental effect on me …. I’m just going to tell it how it is …. but it’s taking valuable energy… Friday is going to be hard work… just the process of answering questions is draining…. what a shame we have a system that is causing extra stress….

I’m ok …. just my health hasn’t been great for quite a while… so we will see how things go…. I did want to ask about recording it…. but given my fluffy brain I forgot to ask…. well it will be what it will be…. I will update with how it goes…

Trying hard not to get sucked up in the “oh fuck feeling ” just rolling my sleeves up…. hopefully they will have an understanding of https://me-pedia.org/wiki/ME/CFS we can but hope ….

So back to resting… love an light… thank you for listening …. ❤️
