Yeah I couldn't resist the little play on words - I'm a nerd.

I have had a non stop last 3-4 weeks as I've ran around to every appointment and made nonstop phone calls, but I finally have everything I needed.

A claim was opened for me today by my surgeons office. I should know by Wednesday hopefully.

Yay!!! Hopefully it'll be as fast as mine was. I got approved in two days! Which was totally unexpected, cause from what they told me the average wait time was a month!

After approval, its allllllllll downhill!!!

Thanks guys. I hope it goes swiftly too. I don't think it will really lengthy by just what my case manager has said. The fates have been good to me so far so lets keep hoping I'm in their favor.

It's exciting! Once approved, a huge weight will be lifted off your shoulders... time between approval and surgery will fly by!
