dla and epilepsy appeal

hi my daughter has epilepsy and was getting dla middle care and low mobility .i filled in the new pip form .went for the assessment in january .what a joke she didnt know anything about epilepsy and all the questions she asked she took at face value on that day .can you wash can you cook can you use a bank card can you dress yourself which every answer was yes ,but not after a seize which would have been no to every answer my daughter has nocturnal epilepsy and is unconsious for at least 15 mins at a time and takes several days to recover she takes 3 different brands of medication also but she didnt write any of this down she wouldnt let me speak she kept asking my daughter .she is not aware so couldnt answer .anyway got a reply 8 points for care and no mobilty even though she is not allowed to drive though seizures was not happy so wrote a long letter to stress the points she should have recieved in great detail .fely as though we told them a pack of lies when everything we said was true why would you lie about a disabilty . well yesterday letter come back . they have looked at all the claim the 4 points we had for prepare a meal we now have 2 they said you can use a microwave in stead of a cooker how dear they say that what if i dont have a microwave .also you can get a shower so less danger of drowning in the bath i dont have a shower also you can still have a fit in the shower then drown in the build up of water if the shower is over the bath .so now she has no points at all .im fuming so angry i stressed the sections we waanted looking at again now she has been left with nothing i went into gret detail each time i wrote she is stuck in a catch 22 as she seems healthy but not post epilectic when she is a total different person i also stressed the 50/50 rule but this has been overlooked .i am going to appeal what do you think of my situation also have you got any information onappeals on epilepsy and points to mention thank you

thank you gordon i now have the h p report and she contradicts lots of questions saying nshe needs help post epiletic but not given any points im more angry at the points been takin away in reconsideration they say they acknowledge her epilepsy but her help is not ned for all of the time i feel this is the point were i have to state her case as epilepsy is so unpredticable how can you say when you are gong to have a seizure i have read and takin lots of notes from your information pages we should have been assessed for 50% of the time over a 12 month period as you stated .but she took my daughter on that day which is unfair and unjust the effects of epilepsy and her medication is a disability in its own right she has nocturnal seizures followed by clusters over the next few days told them all this but because its not everyday there not interested ive arqued this fact im so angry they accept that during or after a seizureshe would be unable to perform any of the task but this is not the majority of the time i cannot understand this reasoning seizures come when they want there is no time scale .can you offer any advice on how to claify this to them thank you very much

thank you for the information i am reapeating my self over and over i will add all this information again i have explained all these points in great deail and how her fits stop her from doing these activities .i think the catch is with epilepsy they want to know how many fits she has in maybe a week and then calculate how many over a year to qualify for the 50% rule but everyday is different how can i calculate this .its as if they want me to lie and say she ha fits everyday this month she has had 2 nocturnal seizures and 2 clusters the following day thats on top of all the absences she has daily the majority of the time is the clause they are using in my opipon to not allow pip .seems funny how it was awareded one min then taking away with all the same information any more advice would be greatful thank you x
