@joanna Hope she has more luck than us.

@hazardwarning Just telling them they’re on their own would be kinder thxn making them jump through all these hoops just so we can pretend we have a system that helps people when they need it.
Hope you get a nurse soon.

@joanna I know. We just feel as if we’re being passed from one department to another, and they’re all saying lots of nice words but ther job is basically to fend you off.

@hazardwarning We’re trying to find out about that. The system is set up to make it as hard as possible, as far as I can tell. Goodness knows how old sick people are supposed to navigate it.

@hazardwarning They helpfully said they'd reassess every 12 months. I wonder how many times they think that’ll happen.

The NHS one. His savings are a little above the LA threshold, but the main worry is that it claims his pension, leaving my mother without enough to run the house.
// @kdfrawg
@kdfrawg Yep. The assessment concluded that he needs round the clock nursing but they’re not going to pay for it.
