Yes the phone rang this morning and this little voice on the phone informed me that I don't need to appeal my case for mobility because my GP sent in the DS1500 form and that I have been granted the full care and mobility for the next three years. Now the Bird has many hidden talents has you know BUT mind reading is not one of them, so I like many others out there with this illness has been worrying myself sick about how to live on sod all and for no reason ARRRRRRGH!!!!! How dare we have cancer and how dare we expect to get back a small amount of what we have paid into the system when others out there sit on their arses and won't work. We are being victimised and this is not acceptable. Now if I had not have kicked up and have left it then I would be getting £19 a week from DLA and it seems that they are banking on really ill people to behave in this manner because it is stress that is not needed along with everything else. This is disgusing behavour and is not on, these prats who make the rules need to walk a week in our shoes, that those of us who can walk and then maybe the right actions would be taken. Oh that feels better for getting that off my chest!!!! Right what else have I been up too, well not a lot. Floyd, one of my blue and gold macaws has been renamed Floydette after laying an egg on the bird room floor, she leaves it sitting on concrete during part of the day and sits on it all night, now buster her mate has trouble getting in his cage for his grub so I think mounting anything might be difficult so I think this egg isn't fertile but I shall leave them to it regarddless!!!! Yesterday one of my mates came and picked me up and I spent 6 hours with her at her home and it was great to be out of my own prison (I mean home) but Oh did I suffer for it, I got home 25 mins before my morphine (12 hour slow release) was due and I was in cronic pain and had to go to bed, another mate turned up who is a big hairy biker and he put me to bed, oh not good but about an hour later and a top up with extra pain relief I started to feel better, bloody cancer but even though I suffered for going out, it was worth it!!!! I shall attempt to find the energy to tidy out my garden shed today, exciting eh!!!! I have my date with my onc next thursday about my scan results and will be starting the next stage of treatment OH JOY, I am still not worrying about that, I know I have more tumours because I can feel them under the skin but what ever, too many things to be doing to worry about that. Right guys I am off to the shead still kicking cancer arse and my own. Love and hugs to those who want them..The bird loving, egg watching, lumpy Kezzer...Carol xxxxx
