My journey

Jan 26, 2009

Okay...I am actually realistically getting excited. I know I was denied the surgery on the last day of 2008 but hey, we didn't know all that we know now. Now That my Doc has gotten on board and I filled out the forms myself with great care to detail and he agreed to check both boxes this time, I can't see being refused this surgery OOC.  Someone else was  just approved in one week...with only  one box checked.

I am daring to dream again. I soooo want this to begin. I wish it could have began 20 years ago but I'll settle for later rather than never. I've been browsing the before and afters again. I stopped for a bit when i got the denial. It was like someone let all my wind go. But I'm back!  I want to start again. I want to live and breathe and exercise and eat well and have my self esteem back. So many things i have achieved in my life were consumed by my own inferiority due to  my weight. Somehow, my weight began to define me and yet, I have so many other characteristics to my being to boast about.

Secretly, I have a dream. I dream that, despite the fact that my brother hasn't spoken to me in years; that he can see that I succeeded at becoming healthy once and for all. I know he is tackling obesity and  serious diabetes. I pray that he will give me a 2 minute audience to show him, that he can reclaim his life too.
