I just got a date!

I'm new to this board, simply because I only got my approval/date on Friday. What a fantastic Christmas gift it was! After a bit of an insurance fight, I am approved and have a date of 1/30/07 for open RNY. I am so excited. Previously I had been trying to get surgery in Dec, but I've decided that a Jan date is even better. No dealing with new insides over Christmas. I am just so happy, after a lot of fight, everything has turned out so well. I look forward to hearing about everyone's experiences. Jen
