In about 8 hours at 5am I leave to the airport to head home from Thailand finally. I'm so excited but since my dilation schedule is at 9am then at 3pm and last at 9pm, I don't know what will happen since my first stop to Tokyo is about 8 hours then i have a 1 hour layover then my flight back home to Nevada is about 11 hours. Basically a full day flight.

How will I do this? I have always followed my dilation regime and due to healing, my depth went from 7 inches to 6.5 inches and I can't afford to lose anymore depth! And I can't leave the dilator in there, it's dangerous, I could kill myself!! I usually lay flat with a pillow on my head to dilate, I can't stand up to dilate. Im just 3 weeks post op omg.....

Don't worry too much about it.  A single day of missed dilation will not cause any appreciable loss of depth that you can't get back.

Your vagina will not heal up like a newly pierced ear if you take out the first earring too soon.

Your flight home will be traumatizing so please just take it easy and rest as much as you can both on the flight home and the next day following your return.

Once you return home restart your regular dilation schedule and you will be fine.

I had a similar fear returning from my surgery.  I spoke to my surgeon and she was quite clear that everything would work out fine and the flight home wouldn't interfere with my healing.  And she was right.

So just relax.  Enjoy your flight home and prepare to start your new life.

BTW: You look gorgeous!

Thank you Sandy and thanks for the compliment. I was beginning to panic a bit and the last thing I need is to stress out and faint at the airport. Im praying that I will make it home without collapsing or fainting

I suggest you dilate as close to the scheduled times as your travel permits. That's the best you can do, right?

As Sandy assured you, its OK to miss one or two days along the way (not i a row though), and they should not hurt you in ways you cannot regain.  It is better to be relaxed when you do your dilations even late than it is to do them under stress, I have met girls who did dilation under heavy stress, and that was when they hurt themselves.  Do not be careless and slough off the dilation just because you are feeling grumpy about it or are have a "'tude" day, but do not be obsessive/compulsive about it either.
