http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/rheumatoid_arthritis_desrve_benefits
I also am going to make an appointment to see my GP at his next surgery.

I am not asking for any donations at all that is the petition site itself, most probably to fund it's free petition hosting.
The donation request has nothing to do with me at all

Hi Eileen, same here I am in a work related group, which I am supposed to go to the jobcentre every month for an interview, I have the same lady everytime, we normally end up chatting about everything other than work, and because she can physically see my health situation she makes me 2 monthly appointments instead of the stupid 1 month ones. In my opinion, especially at our age and health condition these groups are a complete waste of time and resources as no employer in their right mind would even contemplate employing us, but hey the ConDem government know better:(
SO PLEASE EVERYONE SIGN THIS PETITION, it is in all our best interests to try and get something done to try and enable us to carry on as an independant lifestyle as we can with no added stress from the narrow minded powers that be.
Just one thing to take into consideration is that the Leader of the ConDems Cameron himself claimed DLA for his son and got it, rightly so in his son's case but not rightly done in the case of him being a wealthy man and able to afford the best therapies, treatments and care.
OK that's me off my soap box sorry to rant.
