This is cross posted so all my friends can see

I am sitting in computer in tears but tears of JOY. I got approval a few
minutes ago for the surgery.

2 years of battling with the insurance company, my own doctor office. All
the stress and depression it caused. The ups and down of trying hard to get
healthy desperate to find a way to help myself only for it not to work. 2
years of hell came to a end today.

I can't describe this feeling I want to get healthy. I want it so bad but
nothing has worked. I know I got along road ahead. The first real steps
started today. This is going to be the best birthday gift I could ever
have.
