Good luck tom. sweetie cant wait to here back from you. Your journey begins and get ready for the ride of your life..... Hugs love ya kiddo..

Thank you so much  I am soooo excited I woke up at 4 this morning and went to work at 5 everyone at work thought I was sick or something lol. I just couldn't sleep and this is just the consult, I can only imagine how its gonna be when its surgery time   I am so ready to get this journey going, I feel I have prepared as best as I can and I just hope Dr Schirmer and his team see that tomorrow. I have my pysch appt on August 1st and hopefully shortly after that things will be sent to insurance and maybe just maybe I will have surgery this year, keep your fingers crossed. I am trying to remember to breath lol. Thank you so much for your support and of course I will see later tater
