Default Woo Hoo, I got approved!!!!!

ok, that was so not as hard as I was expecting.... The doctors office submitted my records to the insurance company for review a little over 2 weeks ago... I just got my approval and authorization number!

I am sooo excited and a bit scared. I have never been put to sleep before. I don't like to not be in control....

Wow, about time! Congrats, and try not and stress over the surgery. It's a lot easier than what we make it out to be.

Wow Claire... first of all congratulations u look mar-vuh-lous!!!!! 2ndly, I love the name Claire... after my surgery hopefully my hormones will straighten out and I will be trying for an Emma Claire or a Hannah Claire... my son Caleb Ryan wants a baby sister sooo bad he can't stand it... go figure!!!!



To Rappaport: Thanks to my very first (and i think only) TT friend!! and it is not the surgery i am afraid of.. it is the being put to sleep and the possibility of never waking up!!!!! and the loose of control... that kinda freaks me out!
