hi cakebaker,.
 fantastic news  on your sons  award , congradulations for  having the determination to  get what your son so well deserves ,, i am waiting for  a appeal date to arrive and  unfortunately wasnt awarded anything myself ,but this was my forst time applying  for pip , the welfare rights  person i  previously got in touch with is off long time sick so ime going it alone  now,, your advice  is invaluable for others going through this  stressfull time of appeals ,, i just hope ive  got enough  evidence now  and have written my submission  following the guides on here , this site is a godsend  and the time the mods take to advice and support best they can is  wonderfull ,plus people like urself who wants others to get a fair chance in  winning there appeals ,,
 thankyou  again ,
