Got My Surgery date!!

Hi all, Just wanted to share that I have a surgery date scheduled May 2nd for VSG in Puerto Vallarta, MX with Dr Joya. I am a self-paying patient and borrowed the money so in case there were complications, I would be able to pay any extra. LOL If you are looking for financing options, try www.efinancing-solutions.com I talked with Mindy Landry there and she was great. Phone # is 1-800-728-9585. My youngest daughter is going with me and we will spend an extra week at a timeshare resort there to relax and recoup!! I am really looking forward to it. I wish all of you the best in pursuing your dreams, whatever they might be, and I wish you good health................. God Bless, Karen h

Congratulations Karen! I'm glad you found a way to get your surgery. Just sorry you couldn't have it done closer to home. I pray everything goes well and you get to do some fun mother/daughter stuff while in Mexico. Keep us posted and let us know when you get home to your own bed. Susan
