brandy25 7 Posted November 5, 2015 Hi There, I'm new to this site and am very excited that I've found this outlet. I live in a remote part of Alaska and do not have access to regular support group meetings. Online is the only option I have at this time. I would love it if someone in my area started a support group and would really like to connect with people in my area of the world. I have just completed my final test and am waiting for my surgeon to submit my claim to insurance. This has all been quite the process. I live about 6 hours away from my surgeon and had to go through a six months of tests and appointments. I am very excited to be so close and cannot wait until I can finally take the leap. If anyone has any advice or suggestions, please feel free to do so. Thank you! Brandy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hildaruiz29 16 Posted November 7, 2015 Welcome I'm new here too, just got my surgery last Tuesday. I was waiting long time for my insurance, they found any excuse for denial. They denial mine but my surgeon worked with them until they approved it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
