Trying to stay positive, but not TOO excited

Jun 02, 2014

I had my consultation with my hopefully to be surgeon on May 29th. I was SO excited, but he calmed me down quite a bit.

He said that it seemed like about only 1 in 5 were able to get their surgeries on their insurance. He said he was hopeful too, but that it was harder than it had been before to get abdominoplasties through on medical necessity. He still told me about everything and talked about which surgery I might have done, and how many nights I'd be in the hospital (One?? Wow, they kick you out fast now!) He told me if I had any questions to just call his office, and someone would answer them.

I am still excited, I want to be one of the 1 in 5 of course!! He took my photos to send to my insurance, and said now we wait. He said if they turn me down initially, that they can have my doctors send letters to show the need. he said also, if I could talk to them on the phone it could help out too, as they would be talking directly to the person who needed it.

I am praying and crossing my fingers, toes and eyes! I want this so bad!
Y'all cross everything for me too!
