jennifer suonvieri 13 Posted August 25, 2012 Heey good to see you as well;) ok so I can cross over with my bc..good to know all I want is to get this done and hopefully with no problems! Hi there! I was sleeved this past June in tj by dr Kelly. When your coming back and forth across the border your in a company van and cecey his wife/nurse/driver has some sort of medical pass. Several of us only had birth certificate and license and one gal only license. Nobody batted an eye, it was very easy and uneventful. But... That was with dr Kelly's crew. I imagine the other prominent surgeons operate the same way? Anyways, I wish you a safe trip and speedy recovery!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sacharliem 44 Posted August 25, 2012 You can also just get a passport card, it cost me $30 for a new one instead of the $110 for a passport book, it's only good for land and sea but a huge savings if you don't plan on flying internationally soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

amykins 202 Posted August 26, 2012 I will be going alone but am lucky enough to find a sleeve sister who is having surgery the same day so that helped ALOT. I feel better knowing someone is there to hold my hand or hold me down if I get the jitters. I'm ready, I'm ready, just a little nervous. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
