A LIL ray of hope......... Xpost

I am sitting here about to CRY yall - I have a small ray of hope in my ongoing saga with my plastic surgery issues.......

so I had a consult last week with a doc that worked on a friend of mine and did GOOD work - she was bigger than me yall - now that heffa can wear low rise jeans with thongs..... ANYWAY - I knew I was looking at 10K to pay for a revision TT - cause the jacklegg doc did the panni and didn't do the upgrade I paid for so now insurance wouldn't cover jack......

The lady on staff with THIS doc has been doing insurance approvals for a LONG TIME - she said that they can submit to my insurance for a TT based on needing to repare the scar jacklegg mofo left - and that insurance WOULD pay for that procedure IF it gets approved, but after talking to the doc and reviewing my file - the scar repair is a vaild argument and a procedure UHC does cover - so......

I MIGHT HAVE A SHOT YALL!!!!!!  I only have 3K of that 10K saved so far - and it's a lot of money, but I am ready to dig in and make it happen - but LORD PLEASE JESUS (I'm really about to cry now) PLEASE let it be in your power to grant me this wish and get this correction so that I can feel good about my body.

Confession - it's been HARD for me to be HAPPY and congradulatory for folks who have been getting procedures and having good results - I don't have anything against them - I just feel cheated.  I know that's wrong - I don't want to be that way - but it's HARD. 

AND this morning - someone hit me on the BL that had read my PS story very early on last year but had NOT read the updates and had an appt with MY jacklegg azz surgeon next week!!!!  I was able to warn her - she's cancelling the appt - thank you GOD for bringing her to me so that she didn't have to go through what I have been through. 

So - please pray for me for this yall - I know I ain't the most straight and narrow person - I'm a sinner all day at BEST - but I REALLY REALLY REALLY need this.......

thanks for listening. 

Wow Trina... I'm so happy to hear there is at least a ray of hope in this mess!!!

Don't feel bad that it's hard to congratulate others who are getting what you want - I totally understand! It's hard for everyone waiting for approvals, those who have been denied, etc. Just kinda the luck of the draw in this insurance game (aka MESS)!

Keep us all posted for sure. I'll never forget you sharing those pix with me & how much it impacted me b4 my plastics. Also realized I didn't get back to you on last msg bout you claiming to not have enough courage to get "that much" work done... thanks but I honestly think it takes more courage to go back & try to fix something done poorly than to do other stuff!

Best of luck & keep posting about it... hopefully it helps make the process more bearable sharing with people that can relate!

Thanks lady!!!!  I was SO happy I was able to tell the lady about Dr. Rose and got her to cancel her appt!  THAT is reward for me right there.  That man should not be allowed NEAR post WLS patients..... EVER!!!!!!

I will definitely keep you updated - crazy thing is my mom is talking about helping me get my boobs done - it would be another 6 or so thousand but if insurance covers the first part, I am HALFWAY to the second - but let me NOT get ahead of myself...... gotta stay focused.   Even if it doesn't all work out - TODAY I am glad for the ray of light!!!

I will be keeping my fingers crossed that all of this works out for you.  I know you have been through a lot both physically and emotionally with all of this.  You deserve to have stellar results and a body you can feel good about.

Thanks Red!  I'm crossing fingers, eyes, legs and anything else I can think of!  LOL - I'll keep you updated!

Thanks for updating.  I have been thinking of you & your last post.  I truly hope & pray everything works out, the insurance pays, you get the results you want & deserve!  I will be thinking of you & sending good thoughts.

Thanks for the 'good vibrations' Victoria!  We will see!!!

Oh sweetie, your story really touched me and I instantly felt so much pity for you b/c you have been through the absolute ringer with this all.  Remember God is good and will see you through to the end of your journey somehow :)  He always does.  Much love and hugs.

Thanks Melissa!!
