What to do???

I right now I am at a loss on how to go on with my journey to WLS... I heard from my insurer today, nothing bad , just some more info they need. I know I can find a PCP and get the things they want....but here is the thing.. My husband is trying to get a new job. His current job is ok I guess but he wants one that pays better and I understand. Right now things are a little tight and more money would help. But if he quits the job he has now the insurance is gone as well. It usually takes like 90 days for the new insrurance at the new job is kicking in. So what I have to figure out is how to deal with my goal of having surgury and what happens to all the things I did so far, now that I got the ball rolling. I am excited at the thought to haver a better live and better health, but I have to concider my family and our financial situation. I know 90 days may not sound like that much, but that also means 90 more days of pain and suffering for me. I know there is the option of selfpay insurance ( COBRA I think) but if I remember correctly it is soooooo expencive for a family. I am torn right now between saying HELL NO to the new job and 90 days of waiting for new insurance and YES DO IT so he gets a better paying job. In the past it was always a no brainer for me to say YES to a new job but now at this point I am not so sure anymore. My husband wants what is best for us and he is supportive in my journey to WLS, but after today I see this job switch as a rock in the road....... WHAT TO DO?????
