"p.s with that i do get a disabled parking badge." by no means for sure......my uncle lost his leg through an accident at work back in the early 60's...he's never had a disabled parking badge. | |||

"Confused......do you not have to be on the Higher rate of DLA Mobility component to get a Blue badge anymore?" you do not have to be on mobility at all to apply for a disabled parking badge | |||

"Confused......do you not have to be on the Higher rate of DLA Mobility component to get a Blue badge anymore?you do not have to be on mobility at all to apply for a disabled parking badge" ....but if you are on the higher rate of DLA mobility component, you are automatically entitled to a blue badge...but you still have to apply for it every few years....and pay a small administration fee | |||

"are you right in the head? do you realise how hard it is to cope without a leg?the adjustments you have to make the things you can,t do anymore the pain you have to put up with i worked all my life up til this happened as a paver and block paver then as a minibus driver when paving dried up so given time maybe i will retrain and work again but i think your out of order you make it sound so easy to think i was suggesting we put money in to help you out when you got robbed " That's out of line. I regularly read through the forums and i must say, you appear to just complain about all that's been handed to you. Yes, it's devastating you've lost your leg but at least you're still alive. I think £50 per week is not an unjust amount for a single person to survive on! I do wish you all the best though. | |||

" I fully understand they are a couple. I just presumed that this was a claim based on a single person because of a disability (regardless of partner's income). I obviously have no idea of how the benefits system works. My apologies for being so ignorant! | |||

"Personally I think some comments are a bit harsh, it isn't a long time ago since he became disabled and it must be damned hard to accept and get your head around it before you can be positive about where you life is hopefully going to lead. Bert, I don't know how much people are meant to get but I am guessing they take into account your OH working? " becky gets approx £180 pwk we will get by and it will all work out just hard with trying to move and decorate buy new stuff for the house and cope with disability just by the time we pay the bills theres nowt left to decorate with oreat the food we used to when both working.also lost our place in spain tdue to bills mounting up had to sell it cheap to pay em but hey not moaning my question was where is the money jeremy kyle was on about not about us coping on the 50 qiud | |||

As you say though, I can't understand it when you hear reports of what other people are getting....they are either blowing up the figures or they share out the dole odd these days. The thing is, you have to get your head around not only losing your leg ...accepting you have lost your leg...coping with the pain and then having your life turned upside down because you lose the lifestyle you had before too...a hell of a lot to cope with at once. | |||

It's easy for one to say 'stay positive' when they are not in your position but I really do wish you all the best for your future (again emotionally). X | |||

" I totally agree with you Rugby,I think if it was me it would take me a while to cope with all the Bert has been through,physically and psychologically its hard to come to terms with the loss of a limb straight away Well Bert what are you going to buy after the swimming pool has been paid for? luxury yacht? | |||

"Confused......do you not have to be on the Higher rate of DLA Mobility component to get a Blue badge anymore?" there is a discretionary option but it is almost impossible to get it. my ma is 88 and can only just stand a shuffle a few steps but it took us three years and lots of letters to get one. | |||

"Cant remember where i saw it but the amount of unclaimed benefits far exceeds fraudulent claims. H.M. government makes it so difficult to find what your actually entitled to they are in fact the biggest benefit cheats of the lot. Keep looking for info and asking you might well find your entitled to lots of things they forgot to mention. You have to be a Rab Nesbitt sort of character to get your full entitlement. Good luck." said | |||
