Default insurance approval !!!

I am in a whirl-wind of emotions today. I just found out my insurance Co. approved my Gastric Bypass surgery , also yesterday my husband said he wants a separation, and he's not happy !! This has been a long time coming, so it's no shock, and I think it's a good idea. He's a good man, but we've grown apart. I kidda look forward to having the house to myself.
I'll have my Mom & sister around to help me out after surgery, so I have a lot of support.
I'm looking forward to getting on with the rest of my life !!

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.

Well in your case and how you described it ......... it looks like you got 2 reasons to be happy. Im glad its not and not during or after. You would have blamed the WLS for it. Good for you honey. Im happy for you and get ready for the ride of your life.

Congratulations on your approval!!
Sorry to hear of your marriage situation, but it is better to be happy without than be miserable with.

It sounds as if your marriage is already over, and you have already greived the loss of it, and you are mentally ready.. So! Cheers to your new life! We'll be working towards the losers bench together. Do you have a surgery date set yet?
Hang tough!
