Finally Got Approved

I have been waiting patiently for more than six month to hear that "Oh were already Approved"

After completing my six month of Nutritional visits, and having done all my blood work and scans, i go to my last visit to tell me that i need to do a sleep study.. omg my schedule n stomach turned out so bad because i thought that by now i would get my approval and surgery date.. uugh.. so in a moment of stress n depression, after doing my sleep study, i call three days later, speak to the receptionist regarding my case, and she tells me i have to wait up to two weeks for them to get the results. I ask her do u know who i am, since a lot of people call, she assures me she knows who i am, i hand up n ask God if its upon your approval for me to get this surgery, i will wait for that call... no even 2 mins out, and the clinic calls me, i quickly answer, and all i hear, you had already been approved even after i told u to do the sleep study!!!.. wow. really, regardless of all the time and money i wasted here n there, i finally can breath because i was APPROVED!!! n my next visit is on Wednesday!! woo hoo so happy guys, its really finally happening for me! I Thank God for the biggest support, my mom, and best friend, and this forum! My decision on not letting anyone know about my surgery had taken a toll on me without knowing, i have become so distant and depressed, and jailed inside.. but now i can begin to breath again!!! AMEN!!!! Glory Hallelujah !
