Anyone Book With Dr.kelly April 27Th Or May 4Th?

I havn't narrowed down which date i'm going with.. i guess it depends if i decide to pay the expedite fee for my husband and I's passports. Going to apply for them today.. anyone recently have to apply for a passport? How long did it take to get? Was it the full 6 weeks to process? So excited for this day to finally get here.. been a lurker for way too long... :-)

I haven't recently done it, but I remembered that ours came rather quickly. Just triple check the paperwork to avoid missed errors :) I'd go ahead and schedule the earlier date, Anaid told me, as long as you rescheduled 7 days before surgery, there would be no problems. Good luck!

Everyone I've talked to says it takes 4-6 weeks but my friend applied for hers in December and got it in a couple weeks! Good luck. I apply for mine Monday. Already have my picture and had to wait on birth certificate.

well hoping i get mine soon.. i'd rather go with the earlier date.. the sooner i can get going with this the better.. more time i have to get used to my new tummy before i have this big graduation party for my son.

I am having mine around May 11th with Dr. Kelly. I am waiting to see what his availability is during that time (I don't get out of school until May 10).

If it changes you could go June 18 with me. HEHE! :)

I'm so impatient i want this surgery now LOL Alas i will be going on the May 4th date... i forgot my son has prom the weekend before and i don't think i'll get my passport in time.

I totally understand kansasgirl, I am too, I am just forced to wait since I am in medical school and I have finals until the 9th of May! But I am flighing first thing the next morning to have my surgery. Its now official, I am having my surgery May 10th with Dr. Kelly! I already bought my tickets and will be going alone. Good luck!

congrats Lbeauty i have finalized my date as well i'll be there the week before you.. now i need to find out what there will be to do for my hubby i keep telling him he's going to be bored.. do you know if there is free wireless at the hospital? I'm thinking about bringing a laptop so he'll have something to do...

Delby, if my funds don't come in on the 5th of June, I just may change my date and go with you!

Yes Kansas girl there is wireless at the hospital and at the hotel both. There is also a pool at the hotel and cable tv

Cissie that would be great! My husband will be there too. :)

My hubby wants to go, and I'm not against it, but I will either bring our aunt, or a friend, or just come by myself...

What about phone reception? Will I need to get international calling added to my phone?
