Anxious about job changes

Posted 09-08-2008 at 09:59 AM by annecolorgreen

I am still waiting to hear from insurance and now my job is going to change in some capacity which may or may not send me out job hunting. Today, I am meeting with the CFO of the healthcare organization that I work for as a nurse. I am praying that the upper management DOES see the reality of what they are trying to do.

I finally have "hope"!

After gaining increasing amounts of weight since I graduated high school and got married, I finally have hope that I can be outside how I feel inside!

I've seen the surgeon, dietician, psychiatrist, have my letter of medical necessity and everything goes to the insurance company this week...

Praying it's approved and happens quickly! I am so ready!

About me, wife of 23 years to a wonderful husband, four children--two sons in the Army and two teen daughters...
