Still hopeful I will never give up

Nov 29, 2011

I have not been able to have my Vertical Sleeve done yet,   I still don't have insurance,   I still am trying to get help but I have not had any luck.  I believe that I will get the surgery done it is just a matter of time I just won't give up I know that I will get it I just have to maintain hope and keep on maintaining hope.  I feel like a Caterpillar in it's ca coon waiting to reborn into a butterfly. I am a prisoner in my own body this is not what God wants for me.   I plan on going to Mexico for my surgery eventually I know it is far but I can do it I am not afraid because I know the language and I know that the surgon I choose will be awesome.  I can't afford to have it done in Michigan it is just too expensive.  God is the one who can make it happen because without him nothing is possible.

another day

Nov 23, 2009

well just a little update I still am trying to come up with some money for my surgery I can't wait but I have to I wish I had the money now God knows I need to have this surgery and he is the only one that can help me right now because no one else can..  I have faith and am very optimistic about the eventual day i get my surgery.  In the mean time i am still trying to lose weight and I am like a yo yo very bad I know.  but I guess I have to admit I have a problem with food most days i starve myself trying to lose weight and then I am starving at night.  Now I have been trying not to do that because I really want to feel better now. until my next blog have a good one everyone

I have put my down payment

Nov 18, 2009

I have found my doctor he is Dr Almanza and he is in Tijuana Mexico I went through www.Medicaltourism.com and they were awesome in helping me get my payments started I am so glad that I went there and looked around and sent my inquiry out.  they responded quickly and before I knew it I made my down payment through paypal.  I am not worried about anything at all this is what I have to do to get my surgery and I have waited long enough.  I can't believe after all this time dreaming I am actually one step closer to having my surgery I have to raise an addional $4600.00 to actually have my surgery but I will do it come hell or high water.  I have waited this long and have saved very little and everytime i save i end up spending it on someone else i am always last this is the first time i have put myself first.  So now when I have a little money I will put it in the bank and make a payment to get my surgery.  I know there is a lot of people out there in the same boat as I am and through OH and this page I hope that I can be an inspiration to anyone who meets me along the way.

I can't wait to get to Mexico!!!!!
