Submitted to Insurance this Morning!

Hello everyone, I just had to say finally everything is in and Barix submitted to insurance this morning for approval.   Now the hard part!  Waiting, which I stink at .............will they or won't they approve?  I'm praying for an approval so life can start fresh and new!  I'm so past ready for this.  Just seeking out some good karma so I can get the ball rolling! Thinking positive thoughts, I think I can, I think I can!  Thanks to everyone on these boards who have been so kind and supportive!  You know who you are and you're the best support around!  ~Hugs, Steffanie

Steffanie,   A stand up ovation from this corner of OH!!  I will be holding you hostage in my prayers.  I too hope to get as far as you have and want only for it all to happen swift & smoothly.    Please don't forget, while your taking a long deep breath to exhale, pat yourself on the back for the achieving such successful steps to this point in your journey!  Congarats ~ You go Gurl!! 

Hi, I noticed you were from Alpena and also having Dr. Foote. You wil find that Dr. Foote is awesome. I had my surgery in April 2005 and I am doing great I have lost 165 lbs so I feel wonderful. I grew up in Alpena and still frequent there quite often to see my family and enjoy the beach. Good luck, Lynn

Sending you LTOS of GOOD thoughts!!!! Kathy

Good luck!!!  My doctor sent in for approval with my insurance company the middle of May.  I have been on pins and needles since!  I can't wait for the call that says we are ready to schedule!  If you find any new tricks for waiting let me know!  I keep extra fingers crossed for you too!

Your sweet & funny!  Girlfriend, if I had any tricks I'd sure share'em.  Needless to say, we may need a pin cushion (for all the needles & pins, hehe)!!  Patience IS NOT MY VIRTUE!!!  But I'm keeping good thoughts.  It's early in the game yet!  Thank you to everyone for your prayers & support!  My OH friends are the best! I'm keeping good thoughts and prayers for all of you too! ~Hugs, Steffanie
