Found a hospital!

Ok, I know I never post anymore but I thought I would post now and share my news. I called New Start the other day after I recieved a message from Jan telling me that there were new COE's. I had almost given up, living on what I get from Disability is getting harder and becoming almost impossible. So anyway, I got a call back from New Start's insurance people last night and the lady I spoke with is mailing me their packet, the downside is that she tells me I will most likely have to lose 80+ lbs before they can do my surgery. I don't know if I can lose all that weight. She said that my BMI is too high for their CAT scan machine or something. I've been living with my mother and babysitting for my sister to make it while collecting Disability. My sisters husband lost his job so now I no longer have the extra income from babysitting and my mother found out that her factory will be completely shutting down in November. Now that she will be losing her job, she wants to move to Springfield, so I don't know where things will go from here. It seems that as soon as I get good news, I also get bad. Please say a prayer for me, Thanx.

OH Lia I know you have had a long road with this trying to get the surgery done. but I know you can lose the weight if you really want this and i know you do. Im sorry about all the other things going on. but it will happen really. I thought it would never happen for me either but it did and will for you too. Sweetie we will all be praying that you can get this worked out . What doctor was with New Start? Will be praying for you . Jan
