Just to let you know was created by paula
Hi,
Just wanted to let you know that my friend received her letter today informing her that she has been placed in the support group for ESA with Bipolar. I helped her fill in the forms, last september, with the help of your excellent guides, gathered a load of supporting evidence, photocopied everything, and sent a copy to the dm along with a photocopy of the proof of posting to the DM. We sent everything off on 20th October 2011 and heard nothing after that, so just over three months later a decision is made. She is so releived, and so am I. Your guides were so invaluable, as she had no help from the mental health team or the local benefits advisor or anything, so after 5 months, that is one less worry. I told told her she needs a copy of the medical report to find out when she could be rerassessed, but cannot remember what she needs to ask for. Some good news to share.
