Dec 12, 2009
Here I am again. I called the surgeon's office on 12-1-09 to verify that all my paperwork was received to send off for insurance approval. On Friday, 12-4-09, I received a call back stating that I was approved. I was anticipating a few weeks wait to hear anything back after reading different profiles on here. I was also prepared to hear back that I was denied. I was in shock that whole weekend, and estactic at the same time.
Then the following Monday 12-7-09, was like ok this is for real, now I need to call and schedule this thing before I back out, or they (meaning the insurance company) change their minds. I called, and was willing to accept a date in January thinking they would be booked solid prior to Christmas and all. But again I got lucky on that too. I am going to have an early present. Yep, December 22, 2009 is my day to move to the loser's bench. Can't wait to see what waits for me there....
