There are those who suffer poor health because of complications with their disability, including diabetics. Because of this they may be able to claim benefit help, and so they should.
Thankfully I am in the position where my health and financial circumstances mean I do not need to seek such help. When I read stories like the one below it saddens me and makes me angry at how most of the press and a lot of people in society generally, mostly due to ignorance/political ideology, look negatively upon those in our community who avail of this help.
If ever I am in the position where benefit help is required to lead a reasonable life, I will seek that help with vigour and if the help is called DLA or whatever I will hold my head up high and give a gently smile of sympathy at those who call me names.
