my plastics saga...... keep me in your thoughts....

ok.... a few of you have been so kind and i know i have been 'rambling' on and such..... well.. I got home tonight from work and my surgeon had sent me a packet with her "surgery proposal" and I really need to have surgery.. its not just cosmetic, it is medically necessary also i have been is so much discomfort for MONTHS AND MONTHS.... You dont lose 1/2 your size without serious skin issues. I was very fortunate not to have more issues. Well, the 'ole tube sock/aka breasts.... need some 'fixin.... lol soooooooooo. the PRICE.... is high. but as the old clairol (was it clairol?) commercials used to say.... I'm WORTH IT.... right???? I thought i could get my insurance to pay for it, because of the back/neck/shoulder pain I have had. I even had photographs that the surgeon sent in, and an appeal filed.... and came to find out that all of this was for NOTHING because my employer had a 'clause' in our plan that stipulates that NO BREAST surgery of any nature would be covered unless it were for cancer or mutilation... CAN YOU IMAGINE??!! So... if I had a diseased or mutilated breast... they would help me.... If only i knew this 6 months ago when my pains started, i could have had done this surgery and by now I would have been healed and packed and on my way to SC.... LOL!!! But... as some wise people tell me..... "everything happens for a reason" I just struggle with the patience part....... yes...... I struggle..... Soooooo.... Today, I applied for credit and got it..... YAY! Tomorrow I will call my dr. and see what the soonest date is that I can get in for surgery. I hope its not months and months. I also checked on some affordable airfare/flights and in June there are some delta flights to charleston for 250ish.... but 'first things first....' lol... Please keep me in your thoughts for Tomorrow that when I call my dr they can get me in soon. I really want this soon. I cant wait much longer. I want this surgery... then I need a new car.... and then I want to MOVE TO S.C.! And then start to live finally!!!! hugs!!

Crossing everything I got ... hope tomorrow goes perfectly for you. Sounds like the pieces are falling into place. Dawn And yeah, you ARE ... we ALL are ... worth it!

That's wonderful. I think since you got the credit so quickly and need the surgery so badly, it was meant to be Mary

I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers today. If the surgeon can't get you in right away, ask to be on his "waiting list" for when people cancel.... Good luck! Susann
