Going alone to see Alberto Aceves or......

They have couches in the rooms. Just make sure you tell them you'll need one big enough for your husband to sleep on. It's my understanding that if you don't bring anyone, it maybe smaller.

I'm being sleeved by Dr. Aceves on May 11th. I am very excited. I was going to go alone at first, but now my husband will be with me. At first, I really wanted to go alone since I will worry too much about his boredom , etc.

A question: is the hospital room sufficient for my husband to camp out or should he just stay at the hotel? Thanks. Deborah

The couch in the private hospital rooms are very comfortable. Though their is only the cafe to eat from. The beds at the hotel bring a whole new meaning to "hard as a rock". Nothing is really nearby for dinning. Though the resturants at the hotel are very tasty for your last meal.

There is a Dairy Queen just down the road from the hotel and I think a KFC maybe, I did not eat at either one, we did not find them until after supper. There is a huge cantina/bar/restaurant within walking distance of the hospital, glad Mom did not discover that before leaving! Mom had the guacamole from the cafeteria, said it was great. She said the chicken salad was not anywhere close to what we are used to.

By the way, I am so glad my Mom came with me. Although everyone there is very nice and the nurses came right away when called, it was nice to have her there to help me and to share in the experience.

Angie,

How are you doing? Did you start full liquids today?
