Hi all back from round 1 in Chicago

I feel like I have been run over by a truck but I am home for a few days before my actual DS surgery. On day 1 I had appts from 8AM until 5PM. Then the next day they cancelled my filter placement (that was to be the next day)and WLS saying I had a "psychatric issue" that I need weekly councelling for and that the psychytrist in Chicago had been the one to red flag it-mind you I never met her and my psychyitrst wrote a letter saying I was cleared for the surgery. Anyway God did a miracle that day. They told me that morning there was no changing their minds and I would just have to have the weekly therapy-maybe for 6 months- before I could have surgery. I called everyone including my psyc. doc. Then I felt prompted to read psalms 139. I felt calm and even went to sleep-knowing my surgery was cancelled. I woke up at 3PM and called 3 more places. Long story short they got my surgery back on for the next day and my WLS is still on as well. Leave it to God to take the impossible and make it a reality!! Anyway I had my filter placement and it they could not get it straight so I ended up staying the night. Yesterday(Thurs) I had it repositioned, without any aenethesia(not fun a all) but it is in the right spot and I am ready for Surgery a week from today. Praise God!!

Praise the Lord, Amy. I am so glad that God intervened on your behalf for the surgery. I am praying for you. Hugs, Trish

Amy, that is wonderful news! I'm so happy for you! Our God certainly is an absolutely awesome God!! I will be praying for you as get nearer and nearer to your surgery. Love, Shel
