Ok has anyone else had this problem? I'm sitting here in the San Diego airport and about the time I was about to have a full blown melt down he calls. An HOUR after he's supposed to be here to tell me he's sitting at the boarder. I couldn't pull up the emails with the consignor a # on it I haven eaten much today and I feel like I wanna kill this dude. Then he calls again and has the nerve to say " can you please wait outside I'm 30 min away? Are you KIDDING ME?!?!?!?!

So glad you are doing well! Have a safe trip home.

NOLAGIRL - welcome to the sleeved side! And glad you are doing well!

hey thanks Hoosergirl I'm so glad i did it and you were totally my inspiration to go to OCC. i found it to be overall a great experience even tho t hey definatley n eed to work something out about the driver airport issues. there was some ppl in the group that chose not to follow the " get your flight out after 3 pm RULE" which was no problem for the rule breakers but forced the ppl that DID follow the rules to have a 5 hour wait at the airport. i'm sorry but that is not right.......

nobody wants to hang around the airport for 5 hours a few days after surgery. and if you will have to wait for others at pick u, they need to let you know wbout that before hand not just leave you standing outside.

besides that tho ( and in the grand scheme of things i guess it's not that big a deal) i had a really great experience. everyone at the hospital as well as the hotel spoke english most spoke very good english and many had lived in the us. i couldn't beleive all THE NURSES spoke good english.

My mom says i met DR Ortiz and spoke at length with him about my surgery. i don't remember i think i was scared out of my mind LOL.

I'm safe and sound recovering at home now. i feel great, no pain, i'm drinking well and feeling awesome

thanks you for your blog, it changed mty life Hoosergirl
