Finally NWWLS

So if any of you have read my threads on here then you would know that I have gone round and round with the insurance companies...multiple ones actually mine and my mothers. I have been dealing with this since last summer. Wanting it for two years. Last night after being told that the lap band was an exclusion again, by a new insurance company I decided to just save up and go to Mexico. My mother said she would pay for half and I would pay for half. Ijust had to sav eup 5 grand. Just now I was sitting at my desk, I E-mailed my mom and said hey by the way I need your information for you're health insurance. When she responded she said, I will give it ot you tonight. By the way I called NWWLS today and you're surgery is May 23rd. You will need to pay for half of this but it's on my credit card. Don't tell dad yet.

CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT.

Out of no where she did that I didn't even know she had a credit card for tha ammmount I was shocked. I think it is because she refinanced the hous,e but who knows. I am just so shocked. If any of you have seen the movie the secret then you will understand this. I finally decided to just think that I was going to have the surgery and everynight Iwould lsiten to the tape the secret to the secret and I told myself that I would have the surgery by June no matter what. Two weeks later I get that E-mail from by mom. And a surgery date at the end of may.

Thought become things.

Thanks guys!!! I am soo shocked. I mean there were times where she told me she wouldn't help me. But she said that I have proven to her that I am responsible. I can't beleive it. She cares. It's hard for her too because sh ehas never ever ever been overweight like me...she was a red head bombshell in High School. But she knows how happy I will be. New life here I come!!!
