I really don't know how long it will take to get a date.  I am under the impression, when they get approval from insurance they will call me and give me a date at that time. Between approval and the actual date, I have to see the surgeon one more time and see the nutritionist one more time. I think between the approval date and the date of surgery it will probably be 1 month.  I'm just guessing though.  So, I'm actually looking at mid to late April.  I won't complain if it happens faster though!

Well Dot, you are one step closer. I was beginning to think I was gonna have to come kidnap you and bring you down here.The time will be here before you know it. Congratulations !!!!!

Thanks!  I hope time flies!

thats great news Dot!!!! Cant wait to hear the next good news!!!!

That is awsome you are one step closer. Tressa

Oh, Dot, I'm so glad! I know it's been a trial. I send up good thoughts and prayers that you get an answer and date soon.

Thanks everyone for your encouragement!

great news Blessings sandy c

Its like Spring Chicks around here - people getting dates right and left - Hopefully your date will come soon!  I'm anxious to see what the ins company says come mOnday!  Congrats for small little milestones.  You just may make your personal deadline of April 1.

I would be EXTREMELY happy if I can get a date by April 7!!  But, realistically, I think it will probably be the second or third week of April. Oh well, after waiting this long, what is another couple of weeks?
