lapbandinformation

I was wondering if anyone could relate with the woman mentioned in today's New York Time article regarding her BMI Index which is currently just below the required amount to have lap band surgery. This is not spam. The article link can be found here: http://www.nytimes.com/2010/12/02/business/02obese.html?ref=todayspaper&pagewanted=print There is a vote scheduled for Friday to maybe change this for people. Thoughts? I am a journalist and I am interested in speaking with someone who may be experiencing these same difficulties. Feel free to send me a personal message. Thanks for your help.
