What would you do if a politician could help you????

Hi Friends! It's me again, your trusty pest, continuing to ask you for info that will aid in my lobbying the government on a local, state and national level to eliminate obesity discrimination AND to make insurance coverage for surgical weight loss a mandatory benefit. Even though I'm in Alabama I am working to lobby all 50 states. It's pay it forward time..........can you please, please help me by answering this question. If you could sit face to face with anyone in power and make a difference.....what would you say to them about WLS and how it will change or has changed your life? Hugs, Rona Your Bari-Godmother

Rona, I read your journal and I would like some advice on where to start to raise awareness in the state of Louisiana. I'm speaking to two ladies here who desperately need state help to live pain-free and long lives. I'm only four months post-op, but I'm an active writer and journalist. Here's my journal: http://www.francesspencer.blogspot.com I plan to start knocking on doors/emailing/calling early next week. Thanks, Frances
