| OMG wait until I tell you this....
ok might be a little long lets see....lol
Ok a little boy I use to babysit, well he isn't little anymore, he is 19.... we are very close.. Like brother and sisters... Well I just found out he had a girlfriend a very serious one that he didn't want to tell me about b/c he knew I'd freak out! Well anyway, I met her online and now instead of hateing her i just adore her... Anyway yesterday online we were talking about me wanting the gastric bypass but said I wasn't sure if I could get it... I told her i have bcbsla and I heard they don't.. so will have to find out... Well then she is like you know I deal with insurance companies here at work, this is my job, I'm like O really... she said I have HUGE connections with BCBS! I was like yea cool, it didn't sink in yet... well this morning she called for my poilicy number so she could get started... she is like we are going to get you pushed through the first time... and this and that.. and all kinds of stuff we'll have to do before we will try and on and on... Well finally it kicked in... If its possible that i get it with my insurance, then she is making sure it happnes... all I can say is WOW

Well that is too cool!! I am so happy for you!! Maybe she could hook me up.....lol La is only 1 state away from al.... J/K. I am so happy for you. I hope it all goes well. Keep us posted. I know how aggrivating this can be! It sucks to be quite honest with you. Keep trying, and call the insurance company they will tell you what you need to know to get started. Chances are they do cover it you may just need to meet their criteria. Call them they are your best tool!!!! Keep calling them if you don't understand. They more than likely will explain to you what you need to know.
