Getting close
on December 6, 2011 11:45 am
This doesn't feel real yet but I don't know if it will feel real to me until I am actually on the gurney and heading to the OR.  lol  I went up to UW on the 1st and saw PT, the dietician, and a nurse practitioner.  Everything checked out and my weight was right where it needs to be. 
Now I just have to see an Internal Medicine doctor here and get signed off by them.  One that is done they will submit for approval.  At first I was hearing that approval would take 2 to 6 months but when I spoke with the coordinator there she said that the approvals have been coming back between 2 and 6 weeks. 
I am so excited!  So I guess best case senario would be mid January and worse case senario would be mid March.  Either way its not far from now and its the closest I have ever been on this long, bumpy journey.  :-)
