Thanks, I was in the hospital for Thursday ( surgery was around 1:00pm)and Friday and left Saturday around noon. I started the process in November and then my insurance required 3 months seeing the dietician. So in February I was eligible to submit to my insurance. The approval took about a week and a half and then I was scheduled for surgery. At that point they didn't have anything until may so I was originally scheduled for May 17. I called to see if I could get any earlier and that's when I got in for April 26.

 

Good Morning Laureen and PA,
Well, I have been praying for the friend I shared about on OFF, but I did write her a letter, which I will mail.  She does not have e-mail, or any computer stuff.  I met that friend in AA.  

Well, other than getting back to an AA meeting, and tidying up around here, I have nothing special planned for the day.  Oh, just remembered, I must get to Rite Aid for some Allegra D, and some prescriptions.  Now, I think I have nothing else planned for my day.

Huggles,
Trish

Good Morning PA,

Figured I would start up the Roll call thread for a change, be nice to see if anyone chimes in.  The board has not been as active lately, come out, come out wherever you are, we need to pay it forward here for those who are seeking knowledge.

Well here I sit at work, it hopefully will be a busy and productive day, after work, I am grateful that I don't have to be anywhere at all, so I can go home and hopefully it will be nice enough to take Roxie on a good long walk, after which I will watch my 40 minutes of fluff television (Young & Restless) and then who knows what before I fall into bed. . .  I am having real issues lately with sleep, waking up several times a night to pee and then not falling back into a good sleep and then waking up some mornings before 4 a.m. and not being able to go back to sleep, this is totally out of character for me and with all I do and the exercise regime I've been following for the past 6 weeks or so, I should sleep like the dead. . .  oh well, I'm surviving it, but hell I miss my sleep. . .

Wishing everyone a good day and peace and strength to get through any of the tougher situations of living.

Laureen
