I am so excited Misty just called me and gave me the date of April 3rd for my surgery. I could have went sooner, but it is our busy season at work and I need to make money when the business is there. I can't believe it, yesterday morning I thought I was done and would never have the surgery and what a difference 24 hours makes. Now to get through the classses and the appointments and insurance approval and I am home free. Deanna

Thank you, it is hard to get that first appointment, but once you are in there things move pretty quickly. I would have been done everything sooner, but I didn't have time to take off for work so I had to wait until I got my vacation time back again. Good luck with everything on your end also. It is definately a roller coaster ride....lol. Deanna

Deanna, You are sooooo lucky!!! Wish I had a date but I have to wait until April 5th. Are you going to have it done at Christiana? Hopefully it will work out with your insurance. I read your post yesterday!! Good Luck and keep your chin up!! Sharon

Everything will be done through Christiana Care, THANK GOD. I don't know what I would have done if I had to go through St. Francis. I am not a fan of St. Francis. plus the parking issues and most of all the all most $6,000.00 bill I would have received from them. You appointment is only 2 months away, and believe me that time will fly. I started in Sept thinking April was a lifetime away, but it really wasn't, it just felt like that. The day I am getting released will be the day of your appointment. I will be thinking of you. Deanna

Deanna, I am so happy for you. I am so glad you never lost faith. Just try and think things happen for a reason even though we may not know what it was. Christie
