I am really really sorry about your situationsghope wrote:
My dad is unwell... he was hospitalised and my family did not want me to know or worry.. Years ago, I was working on my PhD and sadly, my grandma passed away. I only knew after 6 months.
Contact your MP immediately... give him/her as much details as possible regarding your Dad's health condition (like doctor letter, hospital reports, bills etc)...
I am sure if he/She is a reasonable MP they will help you to expedite your case as soon as possible...
