God bless the incompetent people at Uni - they really need help.

Best of luck.

Love, Maggie

I am yet to hear back off my Disabilty Advisor about these mistakes!

But, Student Finance England have already Ok'd the extra money and software that I am getting (Amazingly fast for them, they usually take months!

Update: My DA has FINALLY updated the information they have sent to the faculty so it now says IBD instead of IBS!

And they are getting in touch with SFE to update them on what academic year i actually am in!

I'm glad that things are finally going your way, (IOW, they're finally paying attention to what you're telling them).

Naty
great result and the fact that it happened promptly is also pretty awesome

how do you feel about the outcome?

how is your body coping with the weeks events?

Glad that they actually sorted it out, well except the SFE stuff anyway, but the email said they are sorting it for me!

Well there has been what I call a 'minor' flare up of the colitis, as in one day of D (but like it used to be pre MC as opposed to MC D) and I'm still feeling a bit of a need to be near toilets just in case. And i've lost all the weight I had managed to gain (At the GI on tuesday again, which may mean I get booked in for an endoscopy soon, sad times).

Other than that, my body and mind are in harmony most of the time.

I hope this doesn't happen every time i get stressed out by uni stuff! (God help me in a few weeks, I have an exam on the 12th and 4 essays i need to start working on soon!)
