Scheduled my surgery for the end of the month. I am a single mother of 3, youngest is 16. He is going to visit his dad for a month. I am flying down on the 25th for surgery. I am not telling anyone. Hopefully I don't die in the table because no one will know where I am lol.

Your not going to die! Praying for your safe surgery and return back to your kids. ????

I just received my sleeve on June 8th in TJ, Mexico. My Dr. was Elias Ortiz and I could not have had a better experience! I also went by myself although I was not shy about telling those close to me where I went! I drove from Phoenix to the Mexico border at San Diego.My organization is A Lighter Me and every aspect of the trip was amazing. I stayed the first, and fourth and fifth nights at the Grand Hotel which was stunningly beautiful and has a floor dedicated to medical patients with an on-call nurse. The hospital was clean and modern and the staff all spoke wonderful English. Relax, this will be a combination life saving miracle, adventure and vacation all in one! Good luck and enjoy! By the way, I had no problems driving 6 hours home on the fouth day after surgery!
