    My wife and I second and third it. Very impressed. I think their patient coordinator could use some help driving people around, but other than that, all good. My wife has lost a total of 14 lbs since the start of the pre op diet and post surgery, and I have lost 24, and that includes the 12 lbs lost since the surgery a week ago. Hoping that I can start eating more soon, as it gets alittle frustraiting at times.

    Yes, wifi. Kinda slow, but it does work. I dont have an ipad so I couldnt tell you on that, but google translate does work. Hand motions work good too. Its a private hospital, very nice.

    We were in the hospital 2 nights. Very nice. Brush up on your spanish though. Nurses speak very little english. Im doing well, just some bloating from the surgery, and soreness. Havent been able to drink more than a few sips of Gatorade at a time without feeling full. I guess that is a good thing. We are staying two nights at the hotel, then flying back Sunday.

I am doing ok, just sore.
