Katy,
Altough the circumstances are different, I made a DSA
application for a young lady with a stretched nerve down
the length of her arm. At first, she had no use in the arm
at all and her doctor predicted a 12 month period. I wrote
to the LEA (Derby) saying that a computer was needed but it
was only a tempory disability and they seemed happy with
it. Several weeks later, she suddenly improved so I
contacted the LEA again and said that a only tape recorder,
foot switch, etc was needed. The award was made with no
further queries.
