Question:
Does anyone know a company who will finance WL surgery?

Here's an idea: Do you own your own home? If so, you most likely have equity in that home. Why not seek a Home Equity Loan for your surgery? You don't own your own home? Do your parents? Do your in-laws? Remember, morbid obesity is a killer! It is akin to needing an organ transplant to save your life! Your loved ones may be willing to assist you in this quest for funding this life-saving operation. How about a community-wide fundraiser: spaghetti suppers, car washes, etc, etc. We see these all the time for life-saving procedures: why not WLS? Just brainstorming . . . . .

try talking to the hospital, some of them have a payment plan. or try a equity loan 1> interest is deductible on tax return, 2> the medical deduction would be over the 7.5% of your AGI 3> get rid of your credit card balances being charged at 14-22%
