Ive just received a cheque of a backdated payment for LO's dla..
I didnt want to apply for it when his nurse first suggested it..partially because i dont see him as having a disability in any way...i also felt like abit of a fraud for trying to get money for him for the same reasons..when theyre's so many people worse off than him..
Anyway his nurse suggested the money could go towards bits he needs ect or i could just save it for when hes older..so i applied..and its been accepted..since then he's been weaned and i can see how abit of the money would help to get him a few bit of extra food that i wouldnt normally buy..
So now ive got this cheque..im unsure what to do with it..
Its lo's birthday next week and i was really hoping to get him a few extra presents but ive been abnit strapped for cash..would it be bad to use some of it for presents?
Im unsure of what im reallly meant to be using it for other than his extra food bits..and maybe a winter coat!
