What are u all eating to get in calories? Give me an example if you don't mind. I'm 8 weeks out and on full foods but still am not able to eat very much at one time. Between getting calories in and waiting to drink etc. I either don't get enough food in a day or too little water. What are you all doing to help with this problem. I think I just need a little guidance :-)

Violence was the last thing on my mind. I was in a hospital, not in a dark back alley of the ghetto. I never felt uncomfortable or in any danger at any time. Even when we went out and about.

Why two checks? I took one....

This is an interesting subject. I never even though or worried about my stuff while in Mexico last month. I did give my phone and wedding ring to my friends husband to hold while I was there but not for fear of it getting stolen while I wasn't with it. To be honest the thought of anyone stealing my stuff NEVER crossed my mind. I left my stuff in my room several times while shopping and sightseeing and out on strolls. Never had ANY problem!

I flew on a Wednesday, had surgery on Thursday and went home Monday., i could have went home sunday but i liked staying the extra day and sight seeing. There were also a few who arrived on Wednesday, had surgery the same day and went home Sunday. Whatever you prefer. They will work with your schedule.

Good job! You look great!

No heparin shots, we wore compression socks for a few days and I think those help a lot. There were a total of 7 of us, I think, and none of us had any issues with blood clots.

If anyone having surgery with Dr. Kelly needs a companion I'm more than happy to go! Just give me enough notice that I can get off work! Would love to see Dr K again and be a shoulder to lean on for support! Absolutely 100% serious about this!

Mexico could care less if you go there at all. To be honest they welcome us citizens with open arms and when they see you coming in the van or shuttle or whatever they couldn't care less. They thrive on medical tourism. The USA is where you will need documented proof that you are from the US, but again they won't deny entry to a fully documented (passport OR birth certificate and drivers license) plus if you ate going back to the US your driver SHOULD have a medical pass which allos him to bypass the regular line into a much shorter and faster line. Ive heard of MANY people only going thru with a certified birth cert. and their drivers license!

I made chili tonight that was very similar to this! It was fantastic!

Your face looks so much smaller! Way to go!

I think she meant that LisaL outed herself on Bethany's show...

Hi Paulie!!! Had a great time hanging out with you at dinner and listening to the "interesting" choice of songs our entertainment was providing us! Good to hear your doing well! *hugs*

How was your leak diagnosed?

The smile on your face is priceless !!!

Do you have any idea what caused the leak? I thought at 7 weeks out a leak was not very common??

$5500 doesn't include airfare, if needed.
