can something good really be for me?
I've come to realize in my life, that I don't expect good things to happen. For those who know me well, you will write that I shouldn't feel this way to make me feel better, but you all know what I've been through and you know it's true. BUT, I think I may be a little gitty today, which I don't remember having ever been my whole life. Our company had it's benefits meeting today, since our benfits change every July. Our BC representive came to let us know the changes coming for the following year. She mentioned gastic bypass, but I couldn't understand what she was saying as she was facing the other way. So I said what is the change with gastic bypass and she said our policy is now a $2000 deductable for the surgery. I paid $100. But I knew she said something else, so I asked her if that was all that had changed, and she said no... This is the good part.... As of this coming July, our insurance will pay for anyone who had gastric bypass to have the panini surgery done.... I said are you sure... and she said .... "why you won't be eligible for gastric bypass" hahahahah, as many in the room were laughing, I told her I had it 18months ago. I thought she was going to hit the floor. But with our new insurance we will have a $1000 deductable for the plastics, but everything else will be covered. I came back to my desk and call a plastic surgeon. I'm waiting for a date to have a consultation and then I will be scheduling my plastic for as close to July 1st as possible. OH MY!!! Could this really happen to me. Could I be so fortunate to really be having this done. I won't get my hopes up until it is really true, but I just can't imagine. Sorry this post is so long, but I wanted to share my first good news in a very long time. Thank you my friends for being here to share it. Those whom I have shared this with so far just don't understand. I may be joining HW on the ps bench real soon.

That is so cool. I am thrilled for you. I look forward to getting that kind of news in a year or so. My gastric bypass was only a $25 copay for my preadmission testing visit with the doctor. Everything else was covered. I have Personal Choice, Blue Cross's PPO in Philadelphia area.
There are a lot of great things that are going to keep happening in our lives. We just have to be looking for them.
Hugs,
