Hello my name is De Anna and i live in sheridan which is a hour north of Grand Rapids i just found a doctor finally that takes my insurance he is out of Muskegen Dr Gluck i think is how u spell it lol. I go to my first seminar on June 7 i know it is just the beginning but i am so excited i have wanted this for so long and now i think it might finally be happening. I guess i am just looking to someone to talk to i am kind of nervous about the whole thing to about how things will be after and how it will affect my life, my family and my friends. I know the surgery wont problly happen for a while yet i know there is a big process to go through and stuff but just thinking about makes me really excited but yet so nervous i am sure there r many of u out ther that have felt or feeling the same way. well anyways just thought i would stop in and say hi and introduce myself. any one want to share anything with me i would really appreciate it. thank you. De Anna (sheridan, MI)

Hello De Anna. I too had the same feelings that you are having. But just like everyone here we all have our own stories that have brought us here together.. I have found that no matter how many changes this has made they all have been great. I had surgery on 04-04-07 and I am feeling better than I have in years. I have had some hard times yes, but I would never want to go back and change my mind... If you have any questions people here are great and they are sooo very supportive.....Good luck and I hope that we hear more from you.....

De Anna, good luck on this journey - it is amazing - and I'm only 4 days post-op! This web site will be so helpful to you. I only found it a week prior to my surgery and WOW, was it a help as I faced my surgery date. I wish you the best with your doctor. Everyone says be prepared for it to take a while through the whole process, however, mine went quickly. From my first docs appointment to my surgery it was 3 months total. Good luck De Anna! Paul

Wow that was fast they moved things right along for u they told me it would be atleast a year before i could have it done i am guessing problly every insurance has its own process on how things have to be done the doctors office told me i have to go through a 12 mth process first so i have awhile yet, but it will go fast i know it will. I think this website is great i have been checking things out for a couple months now and have learned a lot from it, i actually found my doctor from this site. Well i hope everything goes good for u. thanks for taking the time to talk to me.
