Approved by insurance!!!! Date scheduled!

Feb 03, 2013

I'm feeling hopeful today because I have my date (2/27/13) and my insurance approved my surgery. I was really hoping for RNY but because I have liver disease my Dr feels that the Gastric Sleeve is the better option for me. I hope she is right. I've put so much blood sweat and tears (literally all 3) into getting here that I don't want to wonder if I'd have done better with the RNY. One day when I'm old and sick (or young and dead) I want to KNOW i did everything I could to make life better not just for me but my kids and my family.

I'm have so many emotions playing Rock, paper, scissors in my mind. One minute happy optimistic is on top. the next is hopefully guarded excited, then the stomach churning fear and not to mention the wall climbing anxiety. No wonder they want WLS pts to see a shrink. 23 days and counting. Unless of course something screws it up in the meantime.

In the interest of not rambling on I'm signing off. Hopeful, terrified, excited, (but that could change)
