I got the approval!!

May 12, 2010

On Monday I got a phone call from the surgeon's office telling me that my insurance company approved me for surgery.  On Friday, when I go back for my post op check from the gall bladder, we will decide on a surgery date. I thought that I would be more excited, but Im not Im actually having second thoughts. I guess that is normal. And I will go back and forth more than once.

On Monday I went to lunch with my mom, before I found out about the approval. She told me that she does not want me to have this surgery and I can understand why. Im her daughter and she is scared for me. She keeps telling me that I can do this on my own, but I can't sure I can loose 20-25 pounds, but it comes back plus more. She says I won't be able to eat like I do now, and if I do I will get sick. I don't want to eat the way I eat now. So I won't be able to eat junk the way I want. Eventually maybe I will in moderation and maybe I won't and won't want to.. I found out that I had gall stones the size of golf balls and sleep apnea, if I didn't start this process and get all the tests done then I might not have know until it was too late.

Hopefully everything will work out good. And my mom will come around once she sees how much better I feel and act when its over.
