[Robbino 32]

I made it safe to TJ Samuel picked me up from the border parking lot. Tomorrow is my day I'm not nervous yet but I'm sure that tomorrow my nerves will hit me. Thank you everyone for your support.

My clear liquid days were not that bad I kept my goal in mind when cooking for my family then last night I baked a cake for my niece. I did not cheat on my clear liquid days.

I will report back tomorrow as soon as I can.

Can't wait to hear about your experience!

I was sleeved on Oct. 1. Dr. Jamie Ponce DeLeon. My coordinator was Trish. Trish was absolutely wonderful. She was there for me every step of the procedure, she went above and beyond making me comfortable. Bei in Mexico by myself it was very comforting having her there. The hospital was gr8 and the staff there for me. The last d ay was spent in the hotel, 6th. Floor w/ pool side balcony. Complementery broth and popcicle. In te afternoon Trish came and took me out it shopping....

glad to hear you made it ok. My family is giving me a hard time about going to mexico to have my sleeve done at the end of the month. I just need to remember that I am doing this for me and that not everyone will understand.

Best of luck to you on your journey and keep us posted on the post op.

Please let your family know that you are in really good hands while you are on your journey to get your sleeve. They take really awesome care of you at the hospital and Rosy will get you there and back safely. She knows every bump in the road between San Antonio and Eagles Pass. Lots of us have made the trip with nothing going wrong.
