You go Debby. Keep up the fight. Get what you need. Get a lawyer. Don't

let them take your chance for life away from you. You deserve it! Show them

what you're made of. We're all with you, fighting too. PhillyJude

Debby,

Today was my birthday, and my hubby planned nice dinner with our 16 year old

son at Lonestar

(my favorite steak house). First I didn't want to go, than I had nothing to

wear, than my face is broken out from stress (wonder why?) Finally, I went not

willingly. Who needs to celebrate their 53rd birthday anyway. Like you said

since I have found a way out of this 'fat world' I want to wait til its over to

ever go anywhere again..

I am glad to hear I am not alone... but lets try

to feel better knowing our new life will be beginning soon, okay?

Trudy,

Funny you should ask this today - Less than an hour ago, my husband tried

anything and everything to get me to go with him to visit his sisters (They

own a bar) - We haven't seen them in about 2 months and it is time - However

I just wouldn't go. I tried to tell him that I just felt too fat -- and that

" after " the surgery I would be happy to go anywhere with him.

It's like now that I have a real solution - I am more uncomfortable with the

way I am. I justify this by telling myself that my life has been on hold for

so many years now -what's a few more months - But I realize today that it

make me angry to have lost so many years. I HAVE to find a way to get this

surgery. My Insurance company is being so dumb. I got their letter today

and it said " Laproscopic gastroplasty is not a community or national

standard. There is indication from the information provided that this is an

" emergency procedure " necessitating the waiving of appropriate psychotherapy

in this case "

I CAN' T WALK!!!! H E L L OOOOOooooo Yes, this IS a REAL emergency.... They

are the ones who NEED the therapy!

Sorry to rant - I am just frustrated!
