I thought it would be different

Jan 11, 2007

I went to the cardiac appointment today and thought I would be cleared the same day (not so) I have to go back for two more test. But the good news is I was told by the doctor all looks well and he does not think there will be a problem. 

He just wants to be sure. So I have the P-eval and stress test the same day. Can we say looooonnnnggg day!!! But it is all to the good and I can not wait to be cleared for good.

This is my Testimony!

So far so good

Thank God I got my sleep study scheduled. It is not until Feb 2nd, but it is scheduled. It is all in line with the time frame I  wanted. I would love to have this surgery by March. Looks like it could happen if all continues to run smooth. I will keep you all posted as soon as I know more of what is going on.

Work calls and I had to delay the exercise class one week. Darn, hate having to work for a living!  No I am thankful for my job. So my class is on the 16th.

Okay now I have doubts....

I went to the surgeons office today and had another little informal meeting and had measurements taken (can we say how depressing!) But anyway I got a letter from their insurance person that made me feel as if I do not have enough documentation to get an approval. Said I needed to write a detailed letter of my attempts.

Now mind you the P Eval and Cardiac is in place and we are still proceeding but makes me nervous. Now I have to go to an exercise class on the 9th. (still waiting on that darn sleep study)

I just pray all this works for me, lucky for me I had to see my PCP today and he put my mind somewhat at ease. So I will keep you all posted once I get the letter to them and see what is really going on.

And we rollin'

I got the P Eval on the 18th and now I have the cardiac for the 11th. The only thing left is the sleep study and I am still waiting on hearing from them. If not be Friday they will hear from me!!!

You Have Low Self Esteem 60% of the Time

While you sometimes feel good about yourself, you tend to struggle a little with self esteem issues.
It's not about changing who you are, it's about accepting your faults. You just need to be less critical and demanding of yourself!

Getting closer.....

I finally got my insurance cards yesterday. Yeah!!! Sooooo I got to turn in my paper work today. I went to the office and hand delivered it, made me feel so good. So now the game begins. 

They have to call and get me started, but at least I am this far. As for the accident well, lets just say tears and more tears. Nothing is going right, but I know who got my back!! Just waiting for him to show up and show out for me, just like he always does.

Happy Holidays to everyone!

Dec 25, 2006

Just wanted to wish all well. the holidays this year are great because this will be the last year that I will suffer through this period of my life. I can not wait until the new year to get things started. Wish me well. 

Blessings to all.


What is really goin on???

Dec 21, 2006

Ok yall, I had a crazy day yesterday. I went to my doctor and we talked about WLS again, I was nervous cause I thought maybe I do not have enough documentation to show to the insurance company. But we went through the records and he says he is pretty certain that I do...

Can you say thank you Jesus!!!

Anyway after that I went back to work. After leaving work to pick up my kids, and on the way there some young kid ran into the back of my truck. I was heated but thank God I was alone and minor injuries. 

So that was something and to top it off he had insurance but maybe not for that car. Can you say sister is real mad!!! 

But thank God all is well. I am still playing the waiting game for my new cards, so not much has changed there. Can not wait until I get them so I can get this party started.....
