Surgery may be canceled if we get snow and ice as predicted

Good morning everybody,

I went for my preop appointment yesterday.  Everything is a go as long as the weather cooperates.  There is a 70% chance of snow/ice beginning Sunday continuing through Tuesday, supposedly a possibility of four to eight inches.  If that happens, more than likely my surgery will be canceled.  I guess we will just have to wait and see.

I also found out that when I started this process, my insurance covered 100%.  Well, they changed our plan in September, so now my insurance covers 80%.  (Big sigh!!)  I am just thankful it covers it at all because so many people who need WLS cannot get it because of financial reasons.

I had lost one more pound, so down 9 so far.

I hope everyone has a great day,

Kim

Girl!  Sleep in the lobby of the hospital!  (and get your surgeon to also!!)  No matter what, you are in the home stretch now--hang in there.  My insurance covered 90% and I had to pay the difference....you can do a payment plan if you have to--you've worked so hard and waited so long....ALMOST THERE!! 

I tried to call you back the other day--let me know if you need anything...I'll be thinking about you all weekend!!

Kim
