My brother has received a terminal diagnosis and can no longer work. He applied for PIP but despite being in constant pain, suffering chronic anxiety and confusion, depression, stress, loss of vision, severe diarrhoea and vomiting on a regular basis, he was awarded the lowest rate of £60 per week. This now causes additional unnecessary stress to a man struggling with his diagnosis and fighting to survive. He loves his family dearly and is struggling to survive financially. He has been in touch with the local MacMillan nurse to see what he might be entitled to but there was nothing forthcoming. Does anyone know of any charity he could contact who could provide useful information on his entitlements or where he might find financial support.
