Sleeved And Doing Fine!

My family and I were sleeved on Monday, and each of us had a different experience! I had very little pain, my aunt had a little trouble coming out of anesthesia, and my cousin, had lots of gas pain and freaked out a bit, but she's never had any major surgery. Right now my aunt and I are relaxing in the lobby of the beautiful lucerna, until our ride arrives. My cousin went into town with cecey to get somr new sunglasses. Everyone is great, the broth at the hotel isn't great like the others have daid, but we have been spoiled by Omar. He has taken us every dau to casa de mole for luncj, amd their soup is beyond great. Dr Kelly is phenomrnal, he treated us girls to a wonderful pedi, and spent lots of time visiting and answering questions. Never had any trouble really. Great experience. :)

Glad you are doing great - I'm the girl you talked to in the lobby you talked with the day you got in, who showed you my incisions, lol. Glad you all did great, and it realy was like a little mini vacation.

I thought Tijuana was beautiful, it is such a shame that the drug cartels and crime have given it such a bad reputation.

Which one was Casa de Mole? I'm not sure, all I know is that the place across the hotel that looks like a giant tiki hut had the most awesome fish soup - it was so good, I've been trying to find a recipe that would seem similar, but no luck, lol.

Good Luck on your journey.

Casa de mole was across the street, it had flags in orange, green, yellow and red. I guess it could look like a tiki hut, not sure if its the same. How are you doing? It was very nice to meet you as well!
