hi Katiex:

I am having to wait longer than I would like, but.. since there is NO possibility of my getting too thin to be approved (re-approved) after the surgeon I think I want finally has time to see me (might be as late as Oct and his table is booked 3 months out from that! ), I am going to keep on plugging away at getting to be an even safer surgical candidate.

My approval came through yesterday - and I started all the work and visits in late April/May, and I could have booked with that Doc and be done (with that part) in a few weeks... but I really don't think he's the doc for me... so I am waiting. And will have to re-apply for approval WHEN (and if) I like the second doc I have found.

*sigh*

All in good time I keep telling myself. All in good time.
