long day

I keep checking the web site to see if the request for approval has been sent to insurance yet. Nothing there. I am getting so anxious about know yes or no. I have not made plans for this summer yet because my insurance tends to go quickly after they approve the band. I do have a family get together the first weekend in September and I would like to be the small one there as my whole family (cousins, aunts, uncles) are all large people. I haven't seem most of then since before I had my kids and they are 9 now. It will be nice to see them all, but I don't want to be in pre or post op diets (liquid) stages when I'm there. Why don't doctors understand that it might just be their job but it is our lives they keep on hold. Ok I'll stop for now.
