While we were at the first meeting with the 50 people they told us that we would not be hearing from them for at least 6 months. But within that 6 months we got a big survey that we had to fill out and send back to them. We got them around May. I met with the "TEAM" on Oct. 13th. I got approved by them than.Than the 28th I met with Dr. Ellsmere. And a date was set for Dec. 7th. So from the first letter that I got in Jan. 2010 to my surgery date of Dec. 2010 took almost a year.
This is my understanding as of today.
Hope this helps.

Is there a new session in March? I went to the Mar. 1st. 2010 one last year. I don't know if there is one this year though. I think the only way we find out is when we get the letter. My surgery is postponed til mar. or April because of my loss of blood that I had transfussions for. They have to make sure it is nothing serious. And than I will get in right away. I can't wait to get it done.
I respect everyone's decisions to keep it personal or tell the whole world, we're all different when it comes to revealing our personal lives. For me, it's always helped keep me accountable!!!!!
Those stomach bugs scare the bejeezes out of me!! Anyone who had stomach staples like myself is in danger with intense vomiting, it can cause some serious damage. The other part I can handle....not pleasant, but at least safer. 
Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going back into my bubble shelter!!
I was just wondering if anyone has their surgery coming up soon or has anyone got their letter for info session in March??
