I'm a little slow.

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone,

I've been reading all the posts for quite some time now and could not

figure out for the life of me how do I post? Well, Daaaaa, I'm a

little slow. I've felt so left out, everytime I wanted to post an

opinion on a message I would get a failure notice. So I gave up and

just read all the time. I don't have anything to offer the group

anyway because I haven't had any luck with insurance, I was denied

three times. But I haven't given up yet. I feel like I'm on a

mission, it will probably be with another insurance, but by golly I'm

going to have this done. Reading all of the messages keeps me

energized to keep fighting. Especially the ones where they've had

such successs. I've been a porker all my life, even as a little girl

I was on amphetamines. I've accepted my size at the age of 47 but now

there is a new glitch, I have severe back pain which keeps me from

living a normal life despite the fact that I had back surgery four

years ago. I just wanted all of you to know I'm here. I have nothing

to offer the group, but I'm here everyday reading and learning.

Thanks for letting me go on.

Just because you have not had the surgery YET does not mean you have nothing

to offer the group. We need people here even to listen and offer

encouragement and life experiences as well.

Welcome to our group and good luck in your fight.

Hugs,
