I have officially jumped through all the hoops. Even the ones set on fire. :crying: My request for surgery has been submitted by my patient coordinator and now its a matter of waiting for the response. Please pray for me. I am excited, but also a little nervous. I keep thinking, "let's get this show on the road." but I am also thinking, what am I getting myself into. I just cleaned out my closet and find that I have so many beautiful outfits that I don't fit into, but didn't have the heart to give away. I am hoping I will be able to wear them soon. My rep told me to allow 2 weeks for the approval/denial process to complete. It is going to be a long few weeks.

Let me be the first (here) to congratulate you on all you've achieved. From my own experience, and what I'm reading here, getting to the place you're in takes a very strong commitment to the goal you've set for yourself. Here's hoping you get a speedy approval, followed by a successful and uneventful surgery!

Best of luck,

Dave
