Help Fund my Bariatric Surgery!
I'm Heath Hicks (Hooligan). I'm a local musician in South Bend, and have been involved in the scene for many years. I've battled being overweight for the majority of my life. In 2011, I had a bout with diverticulitis that almost killed me and opened my eyes that I really need to get motivated and get my life together. That included loosing weight. I enrolled in the Memorial Bariatric and Weight Loss Center's program in Sept. 2012. The Bariatric process includes a lot of out of pocket expenses that insurance doesn't cover including $575 for a nutritional program that helps you succeed with the dietary portion of the process, and $100 for the psychological evaluation. Also $260 for the pre-op and post op. diet and special bariatric vitamins.
