Subject: Mr Jack Straw - DLA

Some of you may know that I was assessed and awarded the high rate of DLA for mobility and care. Today I was in the Blackburn Shopping Centre on my Shopmobility scooter when I saw Mr. Jack Straw doing his shopping. It was too good an opportunity not to speak with him, so after a few swift maneuvers I asked for one minute of his time. I told him that I had worked for the past 32 years in the NHS and have now been diagnosed with RA hence the scooter and that I have just been awarded DLA and what a difference it has and will make to myself and indeed others and to please not take it away. He said he wouldnât and gave me his card to write to him and of course I will follow it up with a letter.

Whether this makes a difference or not only time will tell but I do believe in destiny.

Good health and much happiness to all. Mgt1234 x
