KARI, I SINGED YOUR PETITION !! I STARTED OVER TWO YEARS AGO TRYING TO GET THIS SURGERY. I WENT TO MEETINGS , I PICKED OUT MY SURGEON , I GOT MY DOCTOR TO SIGN FOR ME TO HAVE THE SURGERY , THEN FOUND OUT MY INS. CO. WOULD NOT PAY. I WORK FOR A SCHOOL, SO I HAD TO WAIT TO APRIL TO OPEN ENROLLMENT TO CHANGE MY INSURANCE. THE INS. CAME IN EFFECT ON JULY 2003. I STARTED IN JUNE GETTING ALL MY STUFF TOGETHER. IT TOOK ME TILL DEC. 18, 2003 BEFORE MY STUFF WAS SENT TO THE INS. CO. I'VE BEEN TURNED DOWN. IT'S SO DEPRESSING!! I'VE SPENT OVER A THOUSAND DOLLARS DOING WORK SHOPS AND STUFF THAT THE INS. WILL NOT PAY FOR. THANKS FOR GETTING THIS PETITION UP!!! JUDY
