And the good news keeps rolling in. A little while ago I posted that I had received my approval letter yesterday in the mail. This morning I called the surgical nurse/coordinator to let her know about the letter (the Doctor said IBC usually lets their insureds know before they let the surgeons know about approval/denial). Anyway, they received a copy of the letter and right then and there, on the phone she gave me my surgery date!!! She also went over my liquid diet, when to start it, etc. I am beyond estatic. My face hurts from smiling so much. Can this day get any better???

you go girl you have exactly a month and your new life begins. you will be on the loser's bench in no time. Gods Blesing be with you.

Yay for another September sleever. Nanu, zoelifechick, and lorip are being sleeved the 20th also, so you'll have plenty of sleeve sisters. Check out the September board, lots of great people on there.

Thanks! I will definitely keep you posted. Heehee!

I will certainly have to check out the September board. This is such an amazing feeling and I haven't even had the surgery yet!

Add me to the list of 9/20'ers! Very much excited about it!
