So glad you are back home and feeling well! I too, patiently await your pictures.

But is there any clue you could give us as to how much one or some of that may cost us if we consider this? Ball park figures would be nice , only if you dont mind??

Without insurance it can cost a pretty penny. I am out about 30K

Hi there,

I am so glad that you are doing good. Have you talked to my cousin as yet? She will be in the hospital there till Sat. Talked to her sis last night and she said that Cindy is in a lot of pain. I feel bad, but it's all over for her too, now onto the healing.

Happy to see you posing and I hope that you continue to do well. I am sure you look great, and I am sure glad, I don't have to hang around you two skinny minnies! Love you, Diane

I will tell you the estimates that I have,

Tummy tuck and skin removal, 9800 bucks and that is with some of my insurance paying for some of the surgery.

Boobs and arms, 13,000. Lot of money, hence the reason I am still walking around with all this skin!

I don't want to know how much my face will cost me to get rid of the sagging skin there, but that will be done too. I don't want anyone trying to serve me for Thanksgiving dinner with this saggy neck of mine
