HI all, i'm glad to know there are other Military wives out there, that are willing to share and talk about the surgery's.
They do not preform here in Japan, i had mine done before we moved in Sept. So its hard to talk to anyone about it.. So i keep it to myself...
Nice to meet all ya'll.. i hang around from time to time..
I hope ya'll had a great christmas and a Great New Year..
take care

Hi yall,

So if yall have any questions about how tricare works, dont be afriad to PM me. BTW prime remote is the same as prime only you get reimbursed for travel if you are at least 90 miles from an MTF.

Hi! I'm Linda and I live in Utah. I'm waiting for my husband to retire next year; he's currently stationed in Okinawa Japan in the USAF.

I had surgery 1 week ago today. I still feel like I've been hit by a bus, but I don't regret it. I'm looking forward to my new life and looking forward to doing STUFF. Like ice skating, snowboarding, riding my bike, riding a horse, fencing and getting back to one of my absolute loves: Hula. I cannot wait to see how I move without the fat suit.

The journey will be interesting, but the destination is worth it!!
