Waiting on Approval

So far so good.  It took a lot of hard work to get to this point.  I went in yesterday and this time the receptionist was very nice.  Maybe she doesn't have good phone etiquette.  Any how.  She said I did really well and that she will submit to insurance and I have another appointment with the surgeon on the 27th.  I hope that all goes well and I will be having surgery sometime next month. 

Pray for me y'all because you know I have been up and down with this journey and I don't want to it to end before it really gets started

GIGI!!!
I am so proud of you!  Keep us all updated on your surgery date and CONGRATS!

Keep up the good work and always remember to take care of you.  No matter what anyone puts in front of you, says about you or anything else. Just remember... that this time is for you and you only. 

For some of us it's a hard lesson, but it's OK to be selfish sometimes.  The journey is amazing and it's well worth the ride! LOL!

Have a Wonderful Day!

Gigi, know that we are here for you, doing all we can with our good thoughts to speed this along for you.  I want you to be super selfish and do what you need for this.  You have worked super hard and deserve the best.  I am glad that the staff was receptive and kind to you.   I wish I could give you a real hug, the row of them above will have to do for the time being.  I am seeing more positive tones in your posts, the surgery will be soon and the losing will become easier.

Hugs, hugs and more hugs.

Kathy, thank you so much for the wonderful hugs and they are just as valuable as the real ones.  I can't believe that I have come this far.  I am super excited but still part of me is like...."What if"?  I am always thinking that something won't be enough for them or I am missing something or insurance denies me.

I try not to let those thoughts lead me but I can't help but hold on to them.  I am so beside myself right now that I don't know what to do.  I am being impatient which is so unlike me.  I am just ready to move on to the best part of my life.  I know what this life has to offer now I want to know of the other side. 

I keep thinking of being on an amusement ride with my daughter or sharing experiences with her.  I am only limited to certain things with as of now but I know that the future will allow so much more and I can't wait!

Thank you again for the hugs Kathy....back at ya!
