esa time again. was created by James2
Hi all,received another esa form today to fill in.Looking through the help available on this site I am pretty confident with my wifes help I can fill it in to the best of our ability.
One thing I was curious about (mainly how a dm would look at it) is this.With the part regarding being able to propel yourself in a wheelchair whether you use one or not,how would a dm view my position?.
I received esa support group due to severe back injuries due to an accident but last year was also diagnosed with alzheimers disease.Now being on a downward slope with this my wife has to accompany me when I go out so even if I was able to use a wheelchair I would still need to be accompanied at all times so are they likely to take the view I could not self propel myself?sorry if it sounds confusing just trying to forsee their point of view.

This is a purely physical test of your ability to use a wheelchair, so the fact that you need to be accompanied is not relevant to the question, although it is to question 15.Hi all,received another esa form today to fill in.Looking through the help available on this site I am pretty confident with my wifes help I can fill it in to the best of our ability.
