ljperez 87 Posted June 14, 2012 Hello everyone I'm not that new I've been watching and reading for a while. This is such great information I love it. I am having my sleeve done at Boston Medical by Dr. Hess. I reached the weight they asked and all the groups and appointments. Now they have submitted my paperwork to the insurance company (BCBS). Just waiting for my date now. I'm excited but scared I've been overweight my whole life and am done having children (3 girls) so I thought now was a good time to do this especially since BCBS now pays for the sleeve. I am having a little bit of a hard time with my 12 year old (the baby) she doesn't understand why I need the surgery and thinks I'm taking the easy way out. I know she is just scared, any suggestions? I have already showed her Youtube videos of peoples success and waking up from surgery and how smooth it went. If any moms or dads are out there and gone through this please help. She is actually making me second guess myself. Lori Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
