Talking Permission granted!

We went to the surgeon today and discussed my wife's desire to follow my lead and have RNY. Short story - he is going to have his scheduler call her to set up the date. She needs to talk first to the insurance lady to find out how soon BCBS will be happy, then she'll have it as soon as can be after that magic date. Probably looking at Christmas break so I can be with her and help her with the early post-op.

The only significant hurdle left is insurance approval.





Excited? Who, us??

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.
