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.

There is a couple of things. The biggest is the thought of gaining my weight back and having complications from my surgery.

The second is snakes. I have horrible dreams of snakes getting me and now cannot stand to see them.

Mine is... I am afraid of the dark.... yes an old lady like me... has night lights all over the huse, my husband laughs at me but puts up with it...all this because when we were little girls my sisters and I would play hide and seek and I hid in a closet and they kept me in there laughing all the time... it was only maybe 5 minutes or so... but it seemed forever... and now that I write this I am also claustrophobic {sp} we went to Vegas and I had to leave the "startrek experience" because of it.. but thats another story..Peggy

Red face I'm with Shelley & LisaMarie....

.....my fear is that somehow I will screw this up....and I will gain the weight back!!

Not a bunch of other things....I don't like snakes or roaches. I do dislike spiders...but actually picked one up to get it out of my room....(it was more like a daddy long leg...but, I screamed a little...lol. 'Bella was saying something like, "whatcha gonna do with Charolette Mommy?....dont'cha like her....I don't like spiders....I like Charolette...but I don't want to touch it..." LOL. )

wow! what a question!
there are many little fears that lurk in the back of my mind...-if i fall and break a leg i know i won't be able to support my weight in my arms on crutches so that means wheelchair which means har time getting in and out of my apartment, afraid of heights, afraid of somebody breaking in and killing me long and slow (not so afraid of dying, just of the pain of dying), (nightlights here too), afraid of going insane, but the biggest ones are.
-afraid that there will be a complication during the surgery and i will die, I would hate to put my family through the pain of another death of a child after all of the pain i put them through as a teenager (long story, don't ask)
-afraid that if i die God won't want me (please don't laugh at this it is one of the biggies)
-afraid of losing roo (not that we are having any problems but still i worry sometimes)

I'm not really afraid of spiders, snakes, frogs, ect. growing up at the cottage and all got me used to them. Now i'm not saying i like them, i don't mind looking at them but don't really want to touch them if i don't have to. I will move a spider or bug or small garden snake if the need arises, but would prefer that it just leave me alone and i will leave it alone. did you all know tha daddy long legs eat mosquitos? Good to have them around in the summer. well, i guess most spiders eat mosquitos....
i did help hold a 100lb boa constrictor once, held the tail end, till it started to wind it's tail around my arm, (afraid it would do the death squeeze thingy to me) and actually it was pretty neat. Most snakes aren't slimy like people seem to think they are, and it is neat to watch a snake swallow a frog or something,

How could i not have put this one right away? Because i think that this is probably my biggest ever fear.....
losing my parents.
I know it's gonna happen some day that my folks will die, it's the natural order of things, but they are such a source of strength, hope and support for me in all things i don't know how i will get along without them.
