Sad News
on June 24, 2009 4:51 pm
So I got a call from my surgeons office this evening telling me that my surgery is no longer covered under my policy because my employer has change the contract effective June 1 2009. I'm thinking to my self my employer has not informed anyone that our policy was changing. Further more I got my insurance approval June 8, 2009 so if the change was effective June 1 how did I get approved June 8. For now surgery is delayed. I am not saying cancelled because I will be having my surgery with my insurance company paying for it.

10 More DAYS!!!!
on June 19, 2009 5:47 pm
I can't believe that my time has finally come... I have all my pre-op testing done on 06-25-09. I am nervous and excited all at once. The reality of this being major surgery is finally setting and I can't imagine my son or my husband not having me in their lives. I know that this having this surgery is the right decision, but I can't wait until I am post op and doing wonderful.

So my insurance does not require a psy exam, but my surgeon does so I have that scheduled for this Thursday and then I will be able to get my surgery date. I can't believe that this is really about to happen. I am so excited, I know that this is not going to be easy, but it is going to be so worth it.Hopefully now I will be able to get a good nights rest
