Not sure this will happen

Started on this journey in March. Had date for surgery September 9th. Then last month insurance changed requirements to 6 months of NUT visits from the original 4. Last week I heard the requirements were changed back to 4 so we were on for end of Sept. Then my position was eliminated after 16 years and now insurance ends Sept. 1st. I am having a harder time wondering what will happen with the surgery then having to look for another job. Bad day.

yes, a bad day indeed. Sorry for this crap. Consider paying for COBRA benefits to continue with the surgery. use your unemployment time to heal and regroup, gain confidence and find something new. I know it sounds easier that it is, but, COBRA may be an option for you. You have gone through so much and were so close to the surgery, I cannot imagine the angst. Good luck and best wishes to you.

I agree with auntjanny, Cobra may cost you a bit, but when you find another position you may not have the option again to even have the procedure. Don't give up yet, find a way.

Have you spoke with your surgeon about your situation?
