A year after being placed on a priority housing list, Michelle Forbes says she is still waiting to move.
A woman with motor neurone disease has said council delays in finding suitable accommodation has left her confined to one room.
She said she had been given a life-expectancy of three years and feels badly "let down" by the council.Ms Forbes said getting around her privately rented property in Morley, Leeds, had become increasingly difficult. "It's quite uncomfortable to know your commode is in the same room as anyone who is coming to see you."People living with the condition can quickly lose their ability to walk, talk, eat and breathe unaided.Ms Forbes said getting in and out of her house was also a problem for her and put additional strain on her carers.She was allocated a council flat in March, but her move has been further delayed as the property requires work to make it suitable.
