[QUOTE="seanmorris1, post: 456519, member: 87608"] Unfortunately their may not be anything you can do as they are re-assessing everyone on DLA but the best advice i could give you is check your area to see if you have a ' disability information centre' as when you appeal they can word it all correctly. Basically word it how DLA like it if you do Not have one near you contact your local C.A.B . Also it's always a good idea to go see your local MP and get him on your side and ask him to write you a letter that you can send in with your appeal. One thing a lot of people make a mistake with is that they don't tell them what their day is like on the very worst day so instead when it says like what help do you need during the day you would say. You need constant supervision as you may have another hypo and not. Realise it and not be able to administer your insulin. The more you can tell them about your worst day the better you really do have to write down the thick of it. If you explain all of this to your MP I'm sure he can help you get it reinstated. I wish you all the luck in getting it back they just don't realise they are turning down people who really need this DLA to help with their daily living. [/QUOTE]
