I don't have a 100 % date yet.

Are you traveling alone also?

What Doctor did you choose?

I am going with Dr Lopez in Tijanna.

That's a really good idea trying to coordinate a support person with another sleever! I had my surgery in 4/4/14. A friend of mine had it done in August and she went with me. She actually did hers alone, and was just fine. After experiencing it myself, going alone is no big deal. Most important thing is to notify your airlines on your return so you can get handicap assistance thru the airports! Good luck!
