New to the board!

Hi my name is Ashley and I just got the call from Susan with Dr. Murr's office that Aetna approved me on the first try! (Yipee!!!! ) So now I'm just waiting on the ok from my boss to take a surgery date in less than 2 weeks. I am so excited I can't stand it and I don't think anyone but people on this board would understand. I just HAD to tell someone my good news and thought this might be the place to do it. Ashley

Hi Ashley! Congratulations on your upcoming surgery date! Will you be coming to support group next Thursday 9-9-04?? Hope to see you there!! You can get lot's of good advice... Lori 222/155.5/1?? laprny 1-6-04

Lori-- You actually talked to me when I went to support prior to meeting with Dr. Murr. I think at that time (Feb sometime) you were just barely post op. I am so excited! What time is the meeting Thurs?

Ashley- I was a brand new post-op then! It's from 7-9 at the same place. I am sure you are very excited! If you have any questions, please let me know!! Hope to see you there!! Lori

I am so happy for you. You are in great hands with Dr. Murr, his staff and TGH.

so you just had your surg? I am so excited! i think my boss is scared though because of the yelling and whooping I was doing when susan called!

Congradulations Ashley on your approval! @ A big WELCOME to the Florida board!!!!! Stick around a while, there are great people here with lots of wonderful advice! MICHELLE

Thanks!!!! I wish I had known about this board earlier, I wouldn't have had to suffer 7 weeks with no one to talk to about it. I plan on sticking around for awhile and reading some of the previous posts! Ashley

congrats Ashley, when I got my approval I hooped and hollared too. My date with Dr.Murr is next wednesday 9/8 I'm going tomorrow to Tampa for my pre-ops. The board is great, welcome Nancy
