I found a lady on verticalsleevetalk.com that's having surgery the same day with me with Dr. Almanza in Mexico. I'm ecstatic that I found her. When we meet at the airport I'll feel like there's a familiar face! I know it'll be a big relief for me as my friend that's going with me on the trip is staying in san diego while I have surgery to save her from having to spend 200.00 on a passport just to sit and watch me sleep probably. She says she would have bought it if I wanted her to but I didn't wish to put anymore expense on her. I'll be okay but it's still really great to have a chance to get to know someone who'll be there as well.... Just a waitin'!

It is nice that you have a traveling friend to assist you after your surgery. I pre register on Friday Aug3 for my band surgery on Aug 6. I'm getting excited now and I'm ready for the new adventure to begin.
