Congratulations! looks like your wish to Santa came true.

Took me 11 months to get approval as well--it is well worth the wait and fight.

YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!

That is awesome. The feeling you are having today is pretty awesome. After 2 appeals the moment you are approved you just feel, feel... I don't know. But it is a great feeling ( I started hysterically crying). But that first NSV or SV that you have is gonna be even better!

Congratulations to you, I am so happy for you.

YAYAYAYAYAYAY!

I went through the same "end of the world" slight worry when I was sleeved. I was sleeved 5/20 and that crazy guy was telling everyone the world would end 5/21 - that would really suck. = )
