I HAVE BEEN APPROVED!!!!!!!!!!!! I HAVE BEEN APPROVED!!!!!!!!!!!! I HAVE BEEN APPROVED!!!!!!!!!!!! I HAVE BEEN APPROVED!!!!!!!!!!!! I HAVE BEEN APPROVED!!!!!!!!!!!! I HAVE BEEN APPROVED!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm the one that posted "insanely anxious" about how long to hear from the insurance company. The insurance company got my huge documentation note book yesterday at 11:00 am and APPROVED ME this morning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My insurance, MDIPA, is notorious for denials! I prayed last night again...that God would show me if this is the way I should go. I begged that this was the answer. I even prayed "God I don't have the faith to pray a denial is from you...just show me." Surgery will be sometime in March. Perfect timing for me becasue I have work I can finish in Feb. Next Wed I go in for my appointment to make sure I have all the final tests. So many MONTHS of working on this has paid off. I'm not on the loosing side yet but this is a HUGE milestone and I have the approval behind me. happy...happy...happy.. happy... Robin

What a joyful day for you!!! I remember how I felt that day too. I was so excited, I couldn't even speak, or think straight for a little bit. Congratulations!!! I am so happy for you!
