I am kinda new.  I have been hanging around the Sleeve board mostly for the last couple of months. I had my Sleeve exactly one month ago at St. Agnes. Considering how so many folks say the first month is really tough to endure, I feel pretty good about having come through it without too many struggles.

HI Everyone! Thanks for welcoming me to the family. My name is Emilia, I'm 25 & I live in Hyattsville Maryland. I received insurance approval, FINALLY! I am scheduled for RNY on October 7 and am extremely excited. I am starting to get inpatient and nervous which makes no sense since I have been waiting my entire life for this!

Hi Emilia,

I am so glad you posted because at this stage of your journey it is very important to have support.  I received great support from this board when it was very active.  Right now it is a bit slow but we are working on getting it back to how it was before. 

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!! on your approval. I know how exciting it is to finally get this stage but then freak out because everything is so real now.   It is perfectly normal.  You are going to do great and please stay in touch so that we can support you along the way. 

I used to live in MD but we purchased a house in Charles Town, WV (by the charles town races & slots) we have been here for the last 3 years.

Congrats again!  
Please feel free to ask any questions.

Take care

Cira

I am who I am and accept my feelings wholeheartedly.
