Oh gosh Mario, I'm sending a gentle hug, NDIS definitely need to fix some problems like this. Its really awful that they don't seem to have specialist staff trained in disability care, needs etc. (They hire 'bankers' according to a report I read) So it's all whose desk it falls on
definitely some good folks in there too. Glad you fired your OT, they were not doing their job at all
I hope things start happening for you now and the things you need are built. Do you have consumable in your plan? If so, you can use that for the walking stick holder, low cost AT they can't question. I am self managed though but am sure that area of your budget is the same across all plan methods.
The personal care stuff is the most difficult challenge to feel ok about
but you are no less of you for the care and help you need there. It might feel it, and the loss of dignity feeling, (I understand from requiring help similar at times) but those who provide that for you do so without a second thought and do not see it as a burden or a loss of dignity, they share and feel your heartache in needing the help, and will feel good that they can help in such a way
Im sending an extra butt kicking ndis way
