Patience pays off!!
Hi all!!
Well, I got the most wonderful news yesterday:::::::I've been approved!! YEAH!!!
I am so excited. As soon as Stacy from Barix told me I was approved, I let out a loud gasp sound and started crying as I was talking to her!!
She told me that she had gotten all my info to my surgeon's office (Dr. Poplawski) and they should be calling me soon. I couldn't be happier.
As Stacy and I were hanging up, she told me now I can have a happy Merry Christmas!! She is right.
Now my thoughts have switched from the mindset of getting approved to the actual surgery. I'm not really scared, just a little bit I am. I have read where other people have been given something to calm their nerves down while they wait to be rolled back for surgery, so I am hoping I will be able to get something. LOL
My husband is so cute, tonight he sat down at puter and read my notes that I have been collecting from here. He told me he is going to make sure every day I am drinking enough and getting enough protein in!! How cute. He said I need to get a little notebook to keep on hand to write down what I drink and eat to make sure I get what I need.
I love him tons.
Well, I posted a blog on my profile if anyone wants to go read a litte bit more on me!!
Thank you all for your support and encouragement.
God Bless,

I am so very happy for you Tara! I am sorry that I haven't been in touch but my computer was on the frits and my mom is now considered terminal, so I have had no time to write anyone. I have put my surgery on hold until my mom passes because I want to care for her and not have to be cared for myself during her last days. I will someday have my surgery and Hurley told me that all my stuff is good for one year. So I do have to get the pshyc. evaluation done still but I have a doc. that will do it for $225.00 . So this is just a set back but I will try when things smooth out. God bless you and I will want to know all your wonderful updates and news! Merry Christmas!!!
Blessings, Robbie
