I'M APPROVED!!
I finally got the nerve up this morning to call my surgeons and see if they have heard from insurance. They just got information yesterday that I was approved on the 27th. Yippee! I haven't got my date yet. They are supposed to schedule me and my grandmother together so I'm waiting to hear for sure what the date it. Should know within the next day or so. They told me they "thought" it may be Sept 11.
