So Paula waited untill Friday last week to submit my info to the insurance co...and yesterday she got told she was missing stuff.  According to my ins co I need documentation of a 6 mo pre op diet from my PCP... i can get that no problem, but the nurse at my PCP cant get the letter right, and Paula says it is to late now for Monday, there is no way to get approval, so now I wait AGAIN.  Probably till next month, which means I get kicked out of school..oh well.  Anyways I have worked soooo hard for this!  And BOOM!!!!  I am so pissed!   Lisa thanks so much for the call last night, and Michelle I am sorry I havent called you but I am in NO mood to talk, I am so depressed, I am gonna go to my daughters gymnastics meet in Cortland, and EAT my weekend away!!!   I will deal with it all on Monday!!!

Oh Kristy, I'm so sorry this happened.  I can't even tell you that everything happens for a reason, knowing all you're dealing with, it would just feel so fake to say.  So I'll just settle for THAT STINKS, and I'd be pissed too. sending big hugs your way,

I am so sorry - I can't beleive this happened to you!! I know I'd flip out too but hang in there - I firmly believe everything happens for a reason - we may not see it now but some day it becomes apparent!!!  Do you want me to go over there & smack somebody? I will!!! Have a good weekend - indulge a little if you must but don't undo all of the good you've already worked so hard for!!!  Cece

Kristy.... I'm sooooooooo sorry.. Huge cyber hugs coming your way... Remember what I said last night... Everything happens for a reason.....But please please please don't resort to food to drown your sorrows.... You've worked too hard to gain any of it back over a clerical issue.... Instead try a relaxing bath, get your nails done, a little retail therapy... some thing, something other than food... Call me when you're ready to talk....

Thanks everyone for your support.  I am over it now and moving on... trying to get thru to my ins co to see what the 6 mo pre op diet letter has to say from my doc so there are no problems.  and then i wait for a new date.  the only problem is that i was having my surgery...today... on a school vacation, i had to canxl all plans for my kids and its a school vacation, so i wouldnt miss any nursing school.  now if its in march like paula said i will have to miss school, and possibly get kicked out for missing to much time, even tho i make up every minute i miss.  i dont want to waiste $15000 and 2 years, but no one understands, except you guys, how important this surgery is to me and my health.  i will let you know when i get thru to mu ins co and get a new date!  wish me luck, please i need it.

Het I am so sorry to hear that.  You wonder sometimes why stuff like that happens.  I know that when you do get it dome you will feel like a different person.  I am one week out today.  The week was hell week.  It is very hard BUT everyday I feel better.  I know that my goal will finally come and I can eat food again.  I think that is what is hard for me.  Not eating.....  Liquid only........ I have to say I weighed myself today and in one week I lost 15p WOW.  I can saw I was so glad I got on the scale.  I have had a few bad days cried for no reason wonder why I did this to myself.  I can say that I will be here for you when you need me to be.  I know that if it wasn't for this site and support from family and friends I am not sure how I would have gotten through this week.  Keep your chin up Bridgit

Kristy, I wish you luck....{{{{hhhuugggsss}}}}, and you are right we understand better than anyone.

I am sure everything will work out, unfortunately it will be not when you thought it would be, you know I am only a phone call away and stop in if you like, I am home lol.   Maybe the school will understand and make an exception, with proof from the doctor and there is always April vacation, although I am sure you do not want to wait that long.   It will work out, think positive.  Michelle...
