  1. of course. you NEED a passport. the hotel and hospital were better than expected.
  2. ready4achange, dr. garcia, florence hospital. everything was great. the staff takes care of everything you need, every step of the way. at florence the doctors do not come in until 1pm and they are in surgery most of the day. I saw dr. garcia 2x and another bedside dr 2x. that's it. the nurses are the ones that will come by every so often and take your vitals and help you with the little things. The first few days are rough, gas, soreness, tightness in the stomach, but that goes away 100x more with each passing day. I never feel hungry, but get really dry and dehydrated so it's important to be drinking water, gatorade, and/or apple juice all day everyday. on day 5 i'm probably feeling about 90%, my wounds are sore and my stomach is still a little bloated, but i will be ready for work tomorrow no problem.

  4. $4700 great deal and it's with a great doctor with lots of experience.
  5. Ready4AChange, Dr. Garcia, Florence Hospital, great service, everything is taken care of for you, Highly recommend this choice.
  6. The hospital will provide slippers for you. You don't need Gas strips, they have all the medicine there for you. I just brought a carry on and came home with my xrays, blood work, and medicine. Go thru Ready 4a Change, they really take care of you.

    At florence today!

    Yeah the nurses were awesome, everyone was really nice and polite. No reason for concern about your personal belongings at Florence Hospital. It's a small enough hospital where no one is getting away with it anyways.

    How you doin Abster? I'm about 90% recovered.
  9. All I have to say is Dr. Garcia, Florence Hospital. I was sleeved 4 days ago and I'm almost 100% again. With 80% of my stomach missing of course.

  11. Dr. Garcia, Florence Hospital, just do it. I got back tonight and I feel fine.
  12. Getting on that plane is the hardest part. It takes a lot of guts. You will be happy you did it.
