I haven't posted in a long time because I was unable to save cash in time for mexico...lost a deposit....got depressed...gained more weight (of course)  and so on.  
Today, I found out that the exclusion my employer had for bariatric surgery coverage was lifted at the beginning of the year!!
I have at least some coverage now and so let the jumping through the hoops begin!!
BCBS of AL covers 50% up to $10,000,   not a lot considering how much some of these procedures cost but, hey , it's a  start.

I have a looming feeling that this is going to end in dissappointment but, I'm trying to ignore that and just enjoy a little hope for a moment.

peace and love

So great there will be some coverage, and although it is not perfect, it sounds like it gave you some much needed energy to get going again. Great to have you back. Stay in touch!

Lane - Sorry to hear about your bums in the road but everything happens for a reason.   The removal of the exclusion is awesome.   Hopefully you will be able to ahve your surgery soon.   When are you coming up to Nashville so we can hang out.
