I am not sure if you have ever been on it before, but I was one who wrote to you and told you you should join, since you had the DS with Dr. Hess. For everyone else, is the woman I forwarded posts from the OSSGinsurance list to this list about, and we asked for prayers for her. was a brave courageous soul who fought her insurance company for 2 yrs, hired Walter, finally got the insurance to approve, but by then was told by Dr. Hess that she only had a 50/50 chance of making it thru surgery and she did it!!!!!!!!!!!! also is working on getting a bill passed in the state of Ohio making it mandatory for all insurance companies who provide services in OH to have to offer wls. (all types, not just RNY). I just wanted to let you all know *who* was, so you could welcome her and congradulate her on her bravery! - I hope you don't mind my telling everyone this, but there are lots on this list who prayed for you and I know they would want to know it is *you*!!!

Guest guest Posted November 26, 2001 Report Share Posted November 26, 2001 Hi , Praise God that you have come through your surgery! I also want to commend you for fighting the good fight in your state legislature. I am hoping to do the same thing here in California. May you continue to do well and enjoy a wonderful new life.
