Hello all. So much has been going on. First I would like to share with you a bit about my husband Randy. He has been going through kidney failure for a number of years and now we are getting down to the wire where we have had to decide what type of treatment we want to pursue for him. They do this when failure gets down to 10%. The latest numbers for him are 14%. Our choices are dialysis alone, kidney transplant, or no treatment (death). We have opted for kidney transplant. With this choice he will still have to go on dialysis until a kidney is found and the waiting list is years and years long. Needless to say I am terrified. Randy also has Ms to add to the mix which adds to the daily struggle.
Now for my weight loss journey. A number of weeks ago it was sent in to insurance and I have been waiting as patiently as possible lol. It had been the plan to have the surgery next month in August so i could be all healed and feeling better before Randy went on dialysis in the next 6 months to a year. I want to be the best care giver and wife that I can be. He takes such good care of me with my chronic pain now that i want to be able to do the same down the road if possible.
Well yesterday I called the insurance company to see what the status was on the pre-approval process and I was told it had been sent back, this was the second time, because my secondary insurance requires more months of monitored weight loss visits than my primary insurance so now i have to go for more months and will have to re-submit and it looks like surgery, if I am approved will not be till the end of the year. I cannot even tell you how disappointed I am. I am trying to just go with the flow, just a bump in the road mind set though.....I must admit it is hard.....well that is all from me at the moment. I hope your summer is going better than mine LOL.
Big hugs your way.....shelly ♥
