WEll now seeing i've been out for the weekend plus monday sick as all get out and did have a dr apt for knee, by they way they are calling me in a few days as to when knee surgery is they wont do both because of diabetic , afraid of cloting dag on doc was a no punch at all said too many negatives, he will do it but dont like to lol , i was like hey your the doc what yous say goes so the left one first, then dec i wil be out probably go in rehab since no one at home with me, but I sure hope when i get back on that there is no more negativity in this room dont know what i missed and not sure i want to  this room and so many of you have helped me along my journey and i hope this room will still be around when i return, and start my last three months of journey, going to talk to the boss today if he comes in about my surger and so on he might not want me no more , as i am loosing so much time due to sickness dont know what im going to do about money either last time the big boss gave me 30 hours even though i was not working which was a good thing, i do have bills and was so greatfull of him , but with economy getting so bad he just might not go for it this time, i am in fear of loosing my position and dont blame boss if he does get someone else for it , but for me i will be happy to just return to work even if its 3 days a week with insurance i could be ok . oh well will keep posted as to when surgery is. God bless all of you and remember this is a time for forgiving and being thankful, not tearing each other apart.

I don't know the full history either of what went on here.  On a personal note, I can say that so many here have been very supportive of me and my family and I couldn't have made it without them.

I hate to see so much dissention in the ranks, but it happens and we move on.

Gee, I feel for you.  I hope you don't lose your job.  You have to talk to your boss like a "dutch uncle" (whatever that means).  I've been where you are financially.  Losing your income is bad enough, but losing or having to pay for your insurance is the pits.

Keep your chin up.  Good thoughts are coming your way.

Oh yeah, just wanted to say, Dr.Vanguri is the
BOMB!  He and his staff are great.  Stick with it.

Take care and bunches of (((HUGS)))

On your way  to a better you!

I am so sorry you are continuing to have such a challenging time with all of this. Even with reservations, I am sure your surgeon would not agree to go forward if he did not feel it would be in your best interest. When a surgeon knows all of the potential risks going into a procedure, he is armed with knowledge on how to manage these things.

When speaking with your boss, it is important that he understands that you are doing this to improve your overall health. Being healthier should mean less sick time in the future. That should be in his best interest.

I really admire the way you are hanging in there. I wish you all the best!
