No news isn’t always good news ~ July 2012 Update

Today is the nine-month anniversary of Robert’s surgery and we haven’t heard anything from the HSE about our appeal to have Robert placed at the Oxford Centre for Enablement in the UK.

It would appear that the processing of the appeal and provision of supporting paperwork from the NRH and St James’s has delayed this appeal to the point that Robert’s place at the NRH will be only a few weeks away – a short enough wait for the HSE to refuse the appeal on those grounds.

This the very issue on which we appealed their refusal: timing. The original application went to the HSE on the 18th of April 2012 (please see also ‘The case for early intervention and rehabilitation’ http://bit.ly/P0Hzal).
