Redheadedone 3 Posted July 26, 2011 As I type this I am the next one up for surgery. I have chosen Dr. Almanza and do not regret my decision thus far. All the rumors are true, the place is small but the care is great and I am doing just fine. One thing I didn't realize is how long the wait would be from the time I got here until the actually surgery. God is so good because the young lady I have been in the pre-op room with is very sweet and her family has been in and out all day making me laugh and helping the time to pass. I came by myself, a choice that I am now glad I made. That may not be the best choice for everyone but for me I feel better knowing my Mom is safe at home and not having to entertain herself all day while I sit and listen to Spanish programming. The flight here was great! As soon I saw a priest was on board I knew I was good to go!! I chose to stay at a different hotel and got a great rate through Hotwire but another lady here today stayed at the Hampton Inn and said it was fine. I pray for success for everyone going this week. I am ready to be in recovery!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
