I just went and watched your response and I LOVED it! You have a way with words girl! I hope you don't mind if I use some of your lines to combat the ignorants I have come across during my journey! LOL

Watched your vlogs..way to go! Ignorance is forgivable at times. Choosing to remain so is not. Hopefully your messager will take heart.

Thanks :) I was pretty perturbed when I got the message but finally realized it isn't worth the effort to remain angry

Great video - great response.

I am not telling anyone before the surgery (except my husband, of course.) I just don't feel like educatiing them. I'll take it on a case by case basis after.

Thanks. I really want others to know the real deal when it comes to traveling to Mexico for any medical procedure. I plan on showing the good, the bad and the ugly on my vlog

I'll be watching!
