Terminally-ill man offered `return-to-work’ advice
“This sums up all that is worst about the work capability assessments and the processes attached to it.”
Jan 19 2012 Hamilton Advertiser
A MAN in the final stages of a terminal illness has been offered the chance to meet with a Jobcentreplus return-to-work advisor.
The invitation was branded an insult by Elizabeth McGowan, whose husband Stevie was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2002.
Former painter and decorator Mr McGowan (51) is also registered blind and suffering severe dementia.
He is bed-ridden and looked after 24/7 by loving wife of 26 years Elizabeth and a team of dedicated carers at the couple’s home in Ivy Place, Blantyre.
