Smile I'm approved and got a date!

It took just 7 days for insurance to approve me. I am so glad everything is finalized and set. The surgery is scheduled for May 13 with Dr. Potts. I am planning on coming with my husband to the March 23 support group. I am looking forward to meeting some of the people who I have been reading their postings.

My husband had a real fear of this whole process but believe it or not my husband is filling out the paperwork to start the process. Our lives are really going to be changing for the better.
