Congrats on your new home ... Take your time and get back on the surgery track but we all understand ... We all have priorities and that's always first ... CONGRATS AGAIN

Congrats on all your achievement so far. I just want to suggest you pay a little more and have surgery in the states. Too many things can go wrong in Mexico. I had lipo with bbl with a doctor named Omar Diaz, and I almost died. I had tt and breast implants in the states a couple of years ago, but being on a budget led me to Mexico for the rest of surgery. Worse idea ever

Maybe your choice of doctor was not the best but there are excellent doctors in Tijuana. And their resulta are top notch.

So I've been hanging on to my benz since 2003 and it went to car heaven last week. I've been working out, eating right and saving when my engine blew I was shocked. Luckily I have great credit and got a new car a camry for a good price and rates but I didn't want to go thus route until next year. I'm going to use my car tho for the next few weeks ubering to make some more money I want my body dammit. I soooo wish she took care credit or any credit but Im gonna fight to make this work. I also don't want to cut out anything bbl or recovery house time but time is moving fast. Praying for favor.
