Good Evening to All

I'm so sorry it's been so long since I touched base...I've been rather busy going to school.. My bestest friend just got approved for WLS with Dr Rodriguez..just last Friday..She's still in a state of shock. She was supposed to have the surgery at the same time I had mine, last August 26th, however her insurance papers were filed wrong, the insurance processors were "overworked" and underpaid...something happened and then BCBS criteria changed..OOOOh that's a dirty word..so she had to start all over and do her 6 months of weight loss with Weigh****chers and go to her PPO doctor so he could ALSO monitor her attempts!!! then we started all again with the paperwork.. Her 6 months of WW ended the last of June and Last Friday was when it was approved..We are now just waiting for a scheduled date for surgery. OOOOH I'm so excited for her!! Keep her in your prayers..MaryJo Rigney is her name...she's the sister I never had til now!! I also have not been able to attend the support meetings in Louisville since I've been attending school at night..hopefully that will change next month..I hope everyone has been making regular appearances. I will be making MaryJo come as soon as she's well enough after surgery.. blessings to you all Renee Rapier...down about 145lbs
