Hey SavannaA! Daniel told us there was another person coming later today...I guess that's you. LoL. Me and one other girl are at the hospital right now. They just started our IV's. that was painful. Waiting is the hardest part.

Savanna...I'm at the Marriott in Tijuana too. My surgery is tomorrow too w/ Drs. Cabrera and Valenzuela. I hope I get a chance to meet you while we are here..best wishes for tomorrow

Thanks to everyone for the well wishes. I'm in Mexico now. Staying at the Marriott in Tijuana. So far, so good. Victor the driver is really nice and a pretty funny guy. The hotel is nice. Pretty standard Marriott as any other. It did take two calls before anyone brought any bottled Water to the room but that's VERY minor. We get started at 6:40a so I'm about to get some rest. Please pray for me and the surgeons. I will update everyone as soon as I can after recovery.

I'm headed to the airport in a few short hours ... Thankfully a relative of mine could get off work and will be meeting me there on Friday. She should get there just in time to be with me during my recovery. WOo Hoo!!

Yes, I am planning to come in on the 14th. So we might run into each other. How has your experience been? What surgeons performed your procedure? How long did you stay in hospital?

Thank you so much! How has your recovery been? What was your experience like there and with those particular docs? I am traveling alone and a little anxious. Especially since I've NEVER been outside of the US. Do you think it would be too difficult to return to work a week post-op for an office based job? I can't get a lot of time off right now...

Can't wait to meet you!

Thank you so much for the info! My famiy is extermely unsupportive of me and are still trying to convince me not to go and just find a doc in the US. But no one is willing to pay for the extra thousands it will cost me to have surgery in the states. I just can't afford to pay a lot more being a single mom. They are really discouraging me and my mom is even going so far as to say that she won't keep my daughter while I am gone. No one else can keep her...she knows this. its really making me sad at this point. they will definitely

Do you have anyone traveling with you? I am going alone and starting to really get anxious. I've never been outside of the US before. What stuff are you packing?

I am being sleeved on March 15th at Mi Doctor. Maybe our pathes will cross. Even if they dont, best of luck and Id love to hear about your experience. Drs. Cabrera and Valenzuela are performing my surgery.

Thank you so much! I'm praying for safe travel and speedy recoveries for us boh.

I'm traveling alone and will have my surgery done by Drs. Cabrera and Valenzuela.

Thats so exciting! I will be there for surgery on 3/15 too w/ Drs. Cabrera and Valenzuela. I'm also staying at the Marriott. Hope I have a chance to meet you. I probably need to add a picture on here so people know what I look like. lol

I hope I have an opportunity to meet you ladies while I'm there. I am scheduled for surgery on 3/15 at Mi Doctor with Dr. Cabrera & Valenzuela. I am traveling alone. So it would certainly be nice to have some folks to talk to while I'm there.

Hi there! I'm pretty new to the forum but am scheduled for surgery on 3/15 at Mi Doctor w/ Dr. Cabrera & Valenzuela. Hopefully, I have a chance to meet you. I am traveling alone and am extremely anxious about it. I've never been out of the country before.
