Surgery Set

Feb 21, 2013

On Monday I met with my surgeon in Frankfurt. He thinks I'm a great candidate for the surgery and sent his recommendation to TRICARE. We also set a date for my surgery: March 13th. It's rather quick, but with all the time restrictions I have at work, it's really for the best. Unfortunately I don't qualify for FMLA since it's been just under a year that I started with my employer. So instead I'll need to use up my vacation time and file for short-term disability. Which won't be nearly long enough since I'll need to be back to work within 2 weeks. Next stop is back to my primary care doctor for a letter to give my employer. This seems like a never-ending process and I haven't even gotten the full approval for the surgery itself yet!
