When do you have surgery?

When do you have surgery?

Tomorrow, I just landed in San Diego. Samuel the driver for R4AC will pick me up in the morning.

Ok so here's a little update. Dr Luna came along with Rosie and removed the staples. Didn't hurt one bit. He gave me some wound care instructions and advised me on some dietary issues as well. Rosie called later and offered to take me shopping or site seeing but I passed. I have to be up for 6 am to cross the border for my flight at 11 am so I will rest and pack. I know when I get home the kiddos will keep me real busy. Overall my experience has been great. I was well taken care of and I really have no complaints. The entire staff of Ready 4a change has been wonderful. I pray that my recovery continues to go smoothly and I don't run into any issues (leaks' date=' strictures, etc). I am anxious to get home to the states and see my family.[/quote']

 

So happy everything went well.Thanks for the updates and details. Safe travel home.

Good luck Soon2B. Sending prayers for a great surgery and a speedy recovery. Keeps posted.

Thank you! I'm just getting up to get ready for the driver to pick us up.

I finally made it home to Louisiana safe and sound. Thanks to all my VST family for all the prayers and well wishes. For those of you that are traveling to MI Hospital and following in my steps, Dr Garcia and his staff will take excellent care of you. Trust in God and press on. If he brings you to it, he will bring you through it!
