Oh thanks so much I cant wait. I am getting nervous Its just the unknown. And even though when I tell people that I am going to mexico I am sure you know the response I get. But I feel really good about Dr. Rumbaut. Is Rafael a doctor? I am really looking forward to my new life. Then there is always that feeling that everything else failed, its to good to be true. Hopefully this will be a new beginning. Hey the way I see it as long as my legs dont rub anymore and my feet dont hurt I'll be happy! lol:D

Well your no longer an island...we are here for support. I too went to monterrey but not to dr. Rumblaut. Good luck. Ingnore the ignorant. Monterrey is beautful and the hospital matches anything we have here.

Hey Sheeanisland, I went through all of the questions before I went to Mexico too. They kept asking if I was sure about doing it.

I was sure, but still scared of the unknown. I was so glad to see that young man (the taxi driver) in the airport holding up my name on his card! You will be very impressed with the hospital and the care you will recieve. And yes, Rafael is Dr. Rumbaut's associate, Dr. Rafael Diaz. He was so kind to me, he was like my angel. Try not to worry, you'll be in good hands.

Thank you so much for your support. It is so nice to have !! I cant thank you all enough!!!!!!!! Actually I just got off the phone with my sister and someone was telling her at her job about the todays show yesterday, it was about lap band. See I had heard it was supportive of the band. her friend told her that some girl died because she was pregnate and she was gettin sick and died. Did anyone see this show? I am thinking she is mixing it up with the bypass. people love to be alarmest dont they...
