Getting closer!

Dec 26, 2007

Well, Christmas has come and gone.  I love Christmas, but I am always happy to see it go also!  This would have been one of the best Christmas's ever, but we got some disturbing news.  Joe's dad, My father in law, had a heart attack and a stroke on Christmas Eve.  They live in California.  We are always so broke, it's not like we can just drop everything and rush over there.  I know that sounds absolutely horrible, but it's true.   I wish we could take back all of our Christmas gifts and spend it on that.  *sigh*  He is supposed to be okay, but he is also almost 80 years old too.....so, how much will he recover?   All we can do is take it day by day.  I just feel guilty about even traveling to have my surgery, but we can't travel to see his dad?  UGH.  Well, hopefully it will all work out okay. 

YEAH!!!! SURGERY SCHEDULED!!!!

 I had to pull in all of the smilies I could to celebrate!!!  
I called the nurse a couple of times on Friday, I was bound and determined to get her to commit to a date and she did!!  My surgery will be on January 10th!  I think that's a good way to start out the new year.  
I have been so dang busy lately, but so many good things have happened,  My promotion at work has been such a blessing.  I have been working very long hours and being pulled in 10 different directions, but it feels good!  I have already been recognized in my new position, which feels very good.  
I have so much to be thankful for.....my hubby, son, great friends, job, brothers, and now my surgery.....FINALLY!  YEAH!!  

I am sure the road ahead will not be smooth, and I will have struggles with the band and demons to slay, but for now I am ecstatic! 

FINALLY....PROGRESS!!!!

I have been stuck in nuetral for 3 months straight now, but I found out this week that Dr. Frezza's office FINALLY submitted my info to Pres, and on Friday found out Pres already approved it!!!  Now will be the battle to get my surgery scheduled.  Who knew I would have to fight harder with the surgeon than the insurance company?  LOL 
I am very relieved and happy knowing that I am approved for the surgery, I just hope Dr. Frezza's office doesn't make me wait too long.  I know that once I do get banded it will be a slow go until I get several fills, which will more than likely take several months.  The sooner I get started the sooner I can get to that point!
