Default Funeral

We attended a funeral today.....what occurred to me was that it could have been MY funeral in a few years, had I not had WLS.
The gentleman passed away from all the health issues that I was suffering from. Issues that become MAJOR issues when one's weight is not controlled. Issues that snowball and create more health problems that create more health problems until a life is over. A wonderful man passed away at only age 64.
Praise God I was given a tool to save 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.

Its hard when reality hits isn't it? Bless his heart and soul. This is why you will always hear me say I did this to live nothing more. Just to live. He will have peace now and no more pain. My condolences to his family and you to honey.

Boy, if that doesn't make you sit up and count your blessings, nothing will!! I'd been told several times that if I didn't lose the weight, my future was pretty grim, and the details of what was waiting were scary, but it wasn't until I heard about WLS that I found a tool I could use to address the problem. And then Peanut used the same tool. Now we're both sickeningly healthy!!

I'm sorry about your friend, but I'm glad for you to have found the way forward.
