my insurance requires at least 1 night in the hospital

You go CONNIE C!!!!!!! We are all in this together for real!

I just need to know whats going happen to my hair since our textures are different.

Destiny79,

its good to know your scars are good, and as far as the weave goes, i never had one but i sure will get one if i have to! lol

Being an AA I was looking for a thread for AA's to ask questions about our scarring and hair loss.

Can anyone tell me your story? did you lose some of your hair? what do your scars look like? What meds did you use to lighten the scars? Any info would be appreciated

I have to stay overnight as well when my surgery happens later this month or mid Feb(i might have to reschedule)

I have a date January 30( i might reschedule), I need a buddy. Anyone getting banded late Jan early Feb that want to share/compare the journey?

I cant wait:whoo:

<p>CONGRATS APPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I got my approval date today too, mine date is TBD</p>

Ok now that i have calmed my nerves some, does anyone know if we can reschedule once we have a date? I was just thinking thats not enough time for me to get everything i need and my son straighten out.

Just asking, I will keep the date if I have to.
