My New Beginning

[BrandiG 0]

The news I was waiting for arrived at 9am yesterday morning and it was to say the least shocking. I was approved!!! My inforamtion was faxed in on Monday morning and I had an approved first thing Tuesday...talk about excitment!!! I couldnt contain myself yesterday, I couldn't focus and wanted to tell the world; there was only one problem only about 4 people out of the whole entire world knew that I had been trying to get approved. I kept from telling most of my family b/c they are worriers and I didn't want that to interfier with what all I had to do in order to get approved. I just didn't think I needed to tell anyone and everyone until it was set in stone. Needless to say I am breaking the news very gently and a few people at a time and for the most part it's been okay. Today I got the phone call with all of my appointments lined up as well as a surgery date of 6/14 (i may have to move this to 7/8 as this may interfier with work related issues which is okay with me....I'm just so excited that I was approved. My sister in law has been a tremendous amount of help, she was banded 5/13 and I'm on question number nine hundren fourty six thousand twelve :thumbup: So just wanted to update that the wait is over (no pun intended) and I will being my journey in the very near furture!!!:laugh:

Congrats BrandiG!!! I remember that nervousness of waiting to see if my insurance would say yes. When they did, I was ecstatic! I got banded May 13. I think it was one of the hardest, but best decisions I ever made! I am so happy for you! Good luck! :laugh:
