Guest guest Posted October 3, 2003 Report Share Posted October 3, 2003 I am wondering if anyone knows how I can obtain the surgery for weight loss?? I do not have health insurance and can't even get insurance because of my weight. I am 34 and 5'4 weighing 325# currently. I need somebody to help give me a break, I am needy...lol I know we all are. I am not rich either. I could make small monthly payments and hand over my income tax refunds every year until I paid my debt off. I just need somebody to give me a chance. Does anyone know how I could make this happen for me. I have 3 family members who have had the surgery and done well. They all have good medical insurance though. Please somebody write me and lemme know what I can do. I live in Oklahoma but I would travel wherever someone could help me. Thanks,...kristie_melvin@...

Guest guest Posted October 4, 2003 Report Share Posted October 4, 2003 Kristie Do you have Medicaid?? Also, there is a website for the Butterfly Foundation which is a group that apparently tries to fund peoples surgery. I dont have the exact addy but if you type in that name on search you should be able to find it. Ann Elliot RNY with choly July 18 2003 291/244/hoping for 150 I will not give up the fight!!!!
