Default Mom & her Partner got approved for RNY...

Mom and her Partner were so impressed with my surgeon and how she dealt with my surgery in April they have gone through the approval process and are beginning the last legs of the journey for RNY.

This last bit for them is that loss of 20 lbs to shrink the liver for the LAP RNY.

The Journey Clinic has been such a wonderful experience for them, staff, nutritionist, physical therapist, etc!

I am excited for them! They are planning to try and get their surgery the same day if possible..we'll see how that goes!

But it was nice to finally found out how that all was going. Plus they'd gone through a ton of food at home, thrown out a bunch of outdated food and then what was left sent home with my one son and I. (we live next door to each other mom & I)

I feel very confident with their journey having a good outcome.

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.

Will keep them in my prayers that the last part of the journey to WLS goes quickly for them and that they have successful surgeries and quick recoveries.

As SummerBreeze said, be careful that you don't overdo it trying to help them.
