Well I started out three years ago on my quest for WLS. My family put up many road blocks that discouraged me. So... I dropped the whole idea of having the surgery. In the mean time my dad got sick and I was busy helping take care of him. While I had been taking care of dad I made up my mind that I am going forward with my plan of WLS. I have been jumping all the hoops Insurance requires. I lost dad in August 2006. I already had an appointment in October for my initial visit and had plans on going it alone. My mom found out about my appointment and has had a total change of heart. She went with me in October for my initial visit and I qualify as a Great cannidate for the surgery.
I just want to comment on exactly why I want to do this: 1. I want to be around to raise my daughter. 2. I want to be in better health for me. 3.I want to be able to take my daughter to the amusement park and actually ride the rides with her. 4. People do not look at what is on the inside they only look at the outside. People are shallow and do not know what they are missing!
