Wow, 4 Days Until I Leave For Mx & Surgery!

[NJsharon 119]

I leave on the morning of May 10th from Philly to fly to San Diego. Where I will be picked up by Dr Kelly's wife.

I am a wee bit nervous (mainly as I am going alone), but about 80% excited! Confirmed all my details with Omar & he just told me I may want to bring some packets of chicken broth too, so will get some of those.

It has all gone by so quickly. Hard to believe in 4 days I will be getting sleeved & starting a new life for myself!

I will update when I can as I plan to take my laptop & will see if I can hook up to wi-fi at the hotel afterwards.

Have my list to pack... yoga capris, heating pad, gas-x strips, new nightgown, chapstick, laptop, robe, packets of broth, passport of course.

Anything I am missing that is important?!

I was sleeved in Mexico, make sure you hide your money. I had money taken from my overnight bag while I was in surgery:-(

Really?!! Oh gosh. Hadn't thought of that. I am only taking one bag, so not sure where I could hide my money!

I had bought a neck pillow at the air port. It had a small zipper in the back so i put my passport and credit card in there while at the hospital but had about $50 in my carry on bag and it was not bothered.

Who was your surgeon?

I just got back from Mexico and had a wonderful experience! No gas pains (only pain due to my back injury but not the surgery). I had surgery with dr. Ponce de leon and him and his team are amazing! I had no problem with money or anything g else disappearing at all. They also offered me a locked storage thing to use if I wanted to but I never felt the need. God luck everyone!
