My DH will fianlly be joining me on the losers bench. He decided last year about this time that he wanted surgery as well. (I had mine in Nov.06, but a band) So we called and got him going in the 6m. classes. He finished in OCT. it has been such a struggle to get his date, first the Dr had really long wait to consult, then the phsyc dr too. Then they lost the referral for surgery, and that took a bit to straighten out! Next the cardic clearence had to be done at the hospital, so that was a wait!!!! Then the GP sent cardiac clearence but forgot the paper that says hes cleared! UGH. Every step of the way its been a total exercise in frustration. (Mine was so easy from the end of class to surgery was one month, and I was extreame high risk!!!) But finally he got his last meal last night, (which we didnt know at the time it was!

) and his date is Jan 29!!! Ya know what is scary that is the date I told him it was going to be a month ago?! So yeah I feel like we won the war!!!! Oh and now I am waiting for the Dr office (GP) for the pre op physical because they were booked that day! UGH
