Finally, at last, I have been advised that I have been referred for surgery - my funding has been approved. Whoop whoop de dooop de dooop de dahhhhhh de bumshakalaka

I feel amazingly privaleged to have been referred. I feel like I have been given the best ever gift - a chance of a new life. I am so happy.

If it's not too much trouble could I ask some of you to budge up on the losers bench as you may shortly be having a guest. :8855:

Hi Lozer

Had my last appointment in Exeter end of Feb and had met the weight loss target so got put forward for the meeting to decide on funding. Heard at end of march that funding was agreed. Heard from Taunton mid April with appt for seminar on 1st May and round robin on 7th May. Got my surgery date on 29th July about mid June so really quite quick from funding being agreed. However, I have been told the waiting lists are a little longer now but really don't know how long. xx
