Hi, Glad your EGD came back good. No ones mad, I am sure. Just busy, I guess. We know there are lots of people that can't get the surgery for one reason or another. Just don't give up. Maybe you can try through Medicaid or something. There are some that know more about that than I but I do know by getting on here and talking with us, you can get ideas of how to be healthy with or without the surgery. We understand the frustrations cause most of us have been there. Just hang in there and keep in touch. Carol

Tina, Of course we aren't mad at you because you can't afford surgery. I just hated to see you give up so quickly since this surgery has changed SO many of our lives for the better. As far as the Chat room, chances are you are in there alone. Maybe you could post a time that you are going to be in there and see if people can join you. We have done that a couple times before and when people popped in, had a great time. I think Carol is right though, so many of us jump on and off here throughout the day and just don't have time for chat often. Glad your test went well, keep your chin up! Amy

Never mad! YOU have to do what YOU have to do! Only you know what you can and can not do. We're here to support you no matter what your decision is. I pray that everything will work out and you will be able to do what you wish to do. Stay strong and focused. Be blessed........and I'm always here to listen!!! Your new and NEVER mad at you friend, Keke

Did I mention that you're only 30 to 45 minutes away from me??? I was through your area Labor Day weekend. Just thought I would tell you that info..................

Tina, I've never been on the chat, just these boards here. Don't fret, no ones mad at you. You have to do what you can now, and Lord willing the doors will open up for you at a later date for the surgery. Stick around with us, and get some good ideas on diets and stuff. We can encourage you along with your weightloss too! Glad the EGD went ok today. Remember, one day at a time girlfriend! Blessings, Tami

I can't understand why someone would be mad because you post knowing that you can't afford the surgery. I would hope you could find some support and encouragement and possibly some avenues to help you achieve your goals. Have you tried Vocational Rehab or Medicaid? luvitsunnyv

Hi Tina, I am glad your EGD test turn out good. I don't think anyone is mad at you because you are not able to have the surgery. I'm sorry you are not able to get your surgery. I hope thing start to look up for you and hubby soon. Take care, Debra
