I believe they do. I use Priceline and sign up sp they can alert you when the price drops.

also remember to check some smaller budget airlines individually. I wound up getting the best price and flight by booking directly through Jet Blue.

I'm going alone (2/11 date with Dr. Ariel Ortiz & staying at the Marriott). I obsess over the little things . . .e.g. we have lifting restrictions after surgery so picking up my suitcase in the hotel room? Pack light! Super light, and use a rolling suitcase.

I live in Southern Cali so I'm lucky in that a good friend is driving me down to the airport where they'll pick me up to head across the border. She's also picking me up afterwards.

I actually like the idea of going solo. I don't have to worry or focus on anyone else - just me!

I agree. With you I went alone and I liked it better than having to worry about someone else while I am recovering I did fine while there

I went to TJ alone & had no problems or worries. I was actually taken wetter care of there than some of the hospitals I've been to in the US. Everyone was very informative & hospital & recovery center were very clean. The Dr's, Nurses & staff were great!!! Best experience I've had where surgery was involved.

I might have to go alone if we can not get a sitter to take care of our twin boys. Is it hard to go solo, I want to use dr Fernando Garcia.< /p>

I am going alone March 22 to Garcia thru Ready4Achange and I am so excited... Figuring out flights is a pain! (Huge expense to figure into budget for times needed) Does anyone know if MiHospital has WiFi?

I have seen many posts that say that the hospital and hotel both have free Wi-Fi

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
