My story
My insurance excludes wls. I have fairly poor credit and no saving. Living from pay check to pay check. I wanted this so bad for myself. This is my last option. I've lost the weight on my own before, many times but I cannot keep it off. I was depressed because I knew that I could never come up with the money to pay for it on my own. I'm miserable and in pain. My legs hurt. My back hurts. On and on.
So I talked to my mom and asked her if she would help me. Loan me the money and let me make payments. My mom is pretty much a tight wad that always claims she is broke, I was amazed when she said yes! I couldn't believe it. So the last few months have been spent finding a Dr. Getting things into place and now I have a surgery date.
I am going to Dr. Almanza on the 19th of Nov. I know that is just right around the corner. I planned it that way. I am just so scared if I waited to long, something will happen and I wont get to have it done.
So I'm very very nervous to say the least. It's a major operation that will change my life forever. However, I'm more excited than anything. I will be traveling alone which is probably my biggest fear. I realize as the days comes closer how much I rely on my husband for everything and I will be doing this completely on my own. No one to lean on or be there when I wake up. Also, I have a fear of heights. BAD. I haven't been in an airplane since I was 13 years old. I'm scared to death that I will have a panic attack or something. I'm sure I'll be fine, but that fear is there none the less.
Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers. I can't wait for this to be over and I can start the rest of my life as a new healthier and thinner person. I will update again after my surgery and let everyone know how it went.
Thanks for reading!

YEA, FOR YOU GINNY...!!!!
You are going to do just fine...
I haven't flown in over twenty-five years...So, I know a little bit about your
fear of flying...I'm not really afraid, just more anxious than fear...Will I make my connections in time, will I have problems finding my gate...you know..yada, yada, yada...But I do have my daughter going with me and she has flown a good bit, so I really don't know why I'm anxious at all...Back in the day, I flew all over the states time and time again...I know things have changed a lot since then, but actually, all you have to do is follow the signs...if that's not enough, there will be people every where that work for the airlines that will be more than happy to help you....
Take a deep breath and exhale...S.L.O.W.L.Y....YOU are going to do wonderful....!!!! If others can do it...So CAN YOU...!!!
It's meant to be, or your mom, would have never given you the money...!!!
CONGRATULATIONS, GINNY...
It want be long now...SEVEN more Days...WOO-HOOOOOOOOO....!!!!!!!
