Good Luck today Velda! I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers for a problem free surgery and quick recovery! I know you will do just fine, you have educated yourself about all this and are all ready for the losing side!

Topic: RE: Grinnell
Thanks Stacey! I am going crazy waiting. My insurance company denied me because of a policy exclusion! I cried all day! SO...I am in process of trying to find another way as well as appealing the decision with the Ins. Company. I work for the State of Iowa so I can't really appeal to the company. I will definately let you know WHEN it goes through.
Topic: RE: Grinnell
Hello- I had lap RNY by Dr. Sundberg... AWESOME Surgeon... I live in Grinnell also and work at the hospital in ICU.... Once the ball got rolling it was just a matter of time.. it will happen... Have you had your pysch eval? After it comes back from the insurance company they will call you and set everything up with you.
My surgery was on January 10th of this year and Im doing great! Postitive attitude is HUGE in this surgery.. Tell yourself your going to do good, walk and breathe... You will do great too!
Hope things go good for you and who know's I might be there working when you have it!!
