tessies 224 Posted December 10, 2012 Got into the airport and Samuel (R4C) was there to meet me in a nice clean ford Arostar. I was his only pickup. He gave me some history and little facts as we drove to hotel. Rosie the coordinator met me at the hotel and helped me check in and get to my room where she went over everything with me. Had some broth and its not bad at all!! Gonna head to Walmart and explore. So far' date=' great experience. Marriott shuttle will escort to the hospital in the morning <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> More to come......[/quote'] Coolmama I am getting sleeved with Garcia February 2013 and I am going by myself. I'm really scared. How are you doing? Any suggestions for me on what to bring to the hospital and what not to bring since I'm traveling alone? Any info would be so helpful. Thanks!

I had chosen that date because I had a sleeve buddy, now I'm thinking about changing it. Maybe for the week after. My daughters birthday is on the 24. I will be going alone also.
