Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

We didn't know we didn't have the wonders of the internet because it hadn't been invented yet. For rapid communication, there was always the MARS-gram (Military Amateur Radio Service). You could go down to the USO or rec center on base and fill out a form. You got up to 20 words, then the message was broadcast through the ham radio system until it got to an amateur radio operator close to the recipient. He'd call and give her the message. It's hard to get too intimate on one of those, but it usually got through in 2 days or less.

But the written letter was the norm. We still have a stack of them from that time. Oh, in case you haven't figured it out, my girlfriend and I got married a couple of months after I got back to the States, 34 years ago. The technology may have been primitive, but all that communication worked!
