I just arrived in Tijuana and checked into the Marriott. I will be going to the hospital tomorrow to have my surgery! It seemed like forever for this day to come, and now it's finally here. The weather is really nice here, not bad at all so far. It's a wonderful, beautiful day and I am excited to be starting a new phase of my life tomorrow.

My surgery went off without a hitch yesterday. I actually went in late, so my nerves were a little bad from waiting so long. When I walked into the OR, Dr. Garcia was playing "Work Out" by J Cole, which is my absolute JAM right now, so I knew then that everything would be ok. When I woke up from the anesthesia, I thought for a moment that nothing was done, because I didn't feel anything at all. But then I saw the incisions. So far, so great for my recovery. The staff is wonderful, I just wish that I could have something to drink now, they told me I have to wait for another six hours.

Thanks guys so much for your kind thoughts and well wishes, I'm so glad I found this community of caring people.

YAY! So glad that part is over for you. Waiting is the worst! Now relax and rest up give yourself time to heal and be ready for the journey to a healthier you. Congrats! Sending love to you and the great nursing staff at Hospital Mi Doctor.

Good to hear everything went well. Only a couple of more hours before you can something to drink
