My full name is showing, how can I stop it?
You can but you will need to explain it's relevance to the PIP criteria, even where there are areas of overlap, the Descriptors can be quite different.

Think about how the ESA activities relate to the PIP ones, so if you had dexterity problems then this might relate your preparing and cooking a meal, being unable to raise your arms might impact on your washing.
Being unable to go out directly relates to the PIP Going Out activity. Problems with starting and finishing tasks might be relevant to managing your money.

Yes she can.
It needs to be a formal letter, she needs to state her relationship to you and how often she sees you, what care needs you have and what difficulties she has seen you have with the PIP activities. Lastly she needs to attest that the information is correct.
