Hey you! :)

 I went alone, my hubby just dropped me off and picked me up in SD :) V's girlfriend got to see him a couple hours after his surgery I believe, after he left immediate recovery with constant supervision by nurses (where I was when I kept having to pee) and into a reg recovery room (still on hospital floor, not boutique till second night).

I believe she stayed in the recovery boutique downstairs the first night but visited him during visiting hours.

i was fully paid up before I got to Mexico :) I wrote a check for the balance and deposited it in Specialized Bariatrics account at Bank of America (ask your coordinator for acct info if you want). The balance is the total fee minus your deposit :)

the only thing I had to pay for was my extra charge for hernia repair, I paid with credit card at Vida before leaving (make sure you alert your bank you're traveling so there's no hiccups).

i brought loose dresses and loose pajama pants, loose tops, and was comfortable.

it was a great experience, you'll love it (as much as someone could love surgery haha!)!

Aww I'm so happy things went well for you.. I have been waiting on your post. Your descriptions and pictures were great. I have a few questions: how soon after your surgery did you see your husband? Did he stay in the room with you the night of the surgery? How did the payment process go? And was your deposit given back to you or did you just reduce your balance by that amount?  And as far as clothing did you just bring jogging suits I can't imagine wearing jeans with the incisions on your stomach. 

And congratulations..
