On My Way to See Cardenas

[Brie]

Hi Everyone!  I am on my way in four days to see. Dr. Cardenas in Mexico.  Anything I need to know?  This is my first time going out of the country.  I'm a little scared :-/

Hi. Im here already. I am april and i will be meeting you#

All i would say after gone thru surgery is,bring your own painkiller from the states of you can. The first few days can be rough bc they are a little stingy with painkillers.

Cardenas and vincente are very kind people. I have felt very safe and loved here.

Well, I'd say try to relax...

imagine a good outcome... you sipping on your favourite fruit juice...

and you could have a look here for some inspiration:

Dear Brie,

South America isn't bad at all. I have been living already 10 years in countries like Peru and Ecuador. Have visited Chile, Argentina, Brasil among others. It is a bit more chaotic than North America or Europa, but in the end (in most cases lol) it works out miraculously. Stay patient if sometimes things seem not to work. Specially if you have to deal with officials. Stay calm and friendly, don't show your impatience or anger. If you do the procedure will take twice as long. Usually people down here are very helpful and often go out of their way. So I am going to bet you will have a great experience. Good luck!

best wishes, Greta

Everything went amazingly well and I am so happy so far. I told him I wanted Roni's nose and he said no problem :-).  I didn't have any bruising at all, just a lot of swelling. I will post some pics as soon as I figure out how lol
