Shellers
My name is Rachelle and I am 22 years old. I have a 8 month old daughter and a wonderful fiance. I was approved to have surgery my first time, by insurance.
I'm scared to have surgery now that i'm approved because of the out of pocket expenses. My surgeon is not a preferred provider so it is a huge gamble for me to put the $5 grand on a credit card without knowing how much and when I will be getting any of that re-inbursed. I would love to know what other people who are in my situation have done.
My parents are againts me having surgery and any time the subject comes up it turns into a fight. My mother use to work for Jenny Craig, can u imagine what it must have been like for her to have a fat daughter?? She blames me and says that I have not tried hard enough, and that all the money and pain I put into surgery I could put into going to Jenny Craig and the gym. Its hard not to have support in that area of my life.
Right now I am at a standstill. The surgeons office keeps telling me I can schedule a date for surgery, but I keep putting it off because I dont have the deposit amount to give them. Its hard for me to know that I have come this far and now the only thing holding me back is Money and Me!!!
I need some feedback, from people who have been in my situation. I dont know what to do.
