I rather do the same.. finance the surgery and pay for the rest myself. how have u been feeling ... and what have u lost.

So basically you travel from fl, to San Diego airport and they pick u up, and for 6800. then u pay for your own hotel? I apologize if I sound stupid but I have been looking for airtravel and I am in chicago I just need to see wich way it would work out better for me. Thanks again.

did u need a passport? also where did u fly from? what state?

Hello blugini... when did u do the surgery? if I may ask. Also how much did your airfare cost? I have been researching this for months now... so any help I would appreciate. Thanks shygirl
