The last time I checked I'm a male carer. Apart from the normal 'Dole Dosser' attitude from the less understanding I've not had a problem. Was talking to the Manager of our local Co-Op a month or so ago, and even though half the time I don't even get a chance to shave so Iook scruffy http://www.care...

<t>I guess I'm in the opposite boat, my better half always tells me she appreciates what I do for her, though times do get rough and we have our arguments. <br/> <br/> I do however sometimes feel like a third wheel when it comes to doctors, they sometimes barely listen to me when it comes to her hea...

Every time we do it we feel scared they'll drop the award(s). <br/> <br/> I know its not alot of money especially since we get a motorbility car so we've lost the mobility money. But its a great help when it comes to...

<t>Forgot to reply about this my bad.<br/> <br/> <br/> Found out that the sudden drop is because my wife's DLA would of been ended (unless re-started) at Jan. I wish they would just let you know the reasoning behind any massive drops without us having to contact them. Also scary to think that if one...
