Normally a day at Hershey Park or any other amusement park ends the same. Me being depressed that i can't fit comfortably on rides and super tired from all the walking. This time it was different. On Wednesday, my company rewarded my team with an outing of our choice. Concensus was Hershey so we went. I walked and sat outside every coaster while my team had fun. I had fun simply by knowing they got rewarded for their hard work. I watched purses and prizes all day.
Until the last coaster. Don't ask me the name, I don't remember! I got the confirmation I've been waiting for. Cigna finally approved me for surgery!!!
A journey 8 months in the making is finally about to truly begin! August 11, 2015 I will have my gastric sleeve surgery.
The amount of support that I've received since the beginning has been remarkable. However, the Facebook "likes" that I received since the official announcement has blown my mind.
I know I shouldn't measure my worth through social media but for a single gal like me who has battled depression since childhood, it's a big pick me up. Knowing that people through many walks of life are quietly rooting for me is enough to keep me going. 200 of you believe in me! And now, the one person that matters most believe in me too. ME!
This new life that is coming my way is sure going to be challenging. Like my body turning into a sharpei for starters!
I mean....it's true. This is gonna happen to my body. But, what will also happen to my body is it will last. I get to live.
