  1. I'm feeling hopeful. I attended a information session which is required before meeting with a surgeon for a consultation. I was surprised at the number of people who were in attendance just a day before Thanksgiving but it let me know just how much we are all seeking out much needed help. I am now waiting on a phone call upon verification of my insurance to meet with the surgeon. I wishing you all much success in your journey. Happy Holidays!

      Thank you @Jane13! I am doing some research now to make sure that I am asking every question that I want to have answered and writing them down. The surgeon that will be doing the surgery upon approval was very knowledgeable at the information seminar. He put me at ease because the other surgeon that he works with go into every surgery together and one surgeon won't do the surgery without the other surgeon present. He appears to be very attentive. He took the time to look each and every person in the face to acknowledge that they were present and stopped to ask if we had any questions. The hospital is brand new and the unit that patients are on after surgery are private rooms that are made with the larger people in mind. There is even room enough for your supporter to stay overnight with you. He couldn't help but to mention that he wants all of their patients to feel comfortable when designing the rooms they put a lot of effort into it being comfortable. Their toilets accommodate 1000 lbs. I am looking forward to the consultation.
