Thank you for all your kind thoughts. I am here in Juarez Mexico. The trip from the airport to the hospital went great- no issues. The hospital is clean and the room is like a suite, really. I have a separate sitting area, the bathroom is huge and the closet space is good. I had blood work, EKG, and Psych review done - all good. My surgery will be Monday morning, so all I have to do is hang out tonight. I went by myself and I am glad I have my iPad. I only speak English so TV is lost on me!

Here I am at the airport now, this is really going to happen. Today will be a busy day, hopefully - makes the time go faster! I am looking around at all the extra baggage people carry and I wounder if that plays a toll on them like my "extra baggage". I feel so fortunate that I have a plan to better my life and I can't wait to tackle this head on.

HAHAHAHAH!!!! I have my passport ! Thanks - all prayers are welcomed. I am really concerned about traveling into Juarez Mexico. I actually think I am more nervous about that than the operation. I already can't wait to be back home.

Enjoy your shoe shopping! We'll make it through monday and each day will get better after that!!!!

I go in May 7th to Juarez Mexico with Dr.Rodriguez. This is my first surgery and my first time in Mexico. A little nervous about both! I will be going alone so my anticipation is increasing by the minute.

I will be on my way to Juarez Mexico to have VGS with Dr. Rodriguez tomorrow May 6, 2012. I am definitely excited and nervous. I have packed my bags, got my e-ticket, charged my phone and ready to go!!! I hope I got everything.
