Letter From Aetna

I won't bore you with the whole letter, but will quote the important part: "BASED UPON OUR REVIEW OF THE AVAILABLE INFORMATION, WE ARE REVERSING OUR ORIGINAL DETERMINATION AND WILL NOW PROVIDE BENEFITS FOR THE PROSPECTIVE ROUX-EN-Y GASTRIC BYPASS." I read it over and over and over and had to call Jacquie and read it to her so I could understand that it really means what I thought it meant. I can't stop crying. I didn't think it would happen. I thought my life was so jinxed and screwed up that nothing good could ever happen to me. I am in shock at the moment. I honestly can't believe it. I even want to post it on the Bama Board, that's how much I want to tell the world about this. I think it's gotta sink in first though. And my period went away and my blood pressure is lower and it looks like all is right with the world today. I will write more when it sinks in more, but I cannot wait until morning so I can call Dr. Stahl and see HOW SOON CAN YOU DO THIS????? The gods are smiling on me today. I had been out with Jacquie and her sister Gina and had such a good afternoon and got home and got this letter. All my dreams are coming true! Which means I need to get off the computer because Antonio Banderas will be here momentarily, right? I can't believe I am saying this, but I LOVE AETNA! Love, The soon-to-be-thinner Joni
