It's a Go

We just got the word from the surgoen that the CT scan looked fine so we have a green light for the surgery. Our next big hurdle will be to get insurance approval for the bilaterals. If they approve it right off then the surgeon will do the bilaterals in one surgery. If they only come back with approval for one and we can't get the appeals done in time then he'll have surgery for one side and once we get approval for the bilaterals he would have the surgery for the other. It would be a lot easier to have them done in one surgery and to be able to start with his therapy on both at the same time. Common sense tells you we have two ears for a reason so hopefully the insurance will get that too :) Everyone keep their fingers crossed!

I'm wishing you luck in the insurance approval process. Having the same predicament as yours, I'm sure that you'll be able to withstand the test of time. I'm really sure about that because my daughter just came out from the hospital because of an injury and everything is alright. Also, we depended so much on our insurer, the insurance Indianapolis, Indiana-based company when it comes to life insurance. Indianapolis is really our favorite place. Thanks for sharing!
