And for anyone worried about traveling to Tijuana for surgery, I understand, because I was... but I will tell you this ... they took very good care of us (I say us because my daughter also had the surgery and has done wonderful) ... I over came my fear through getting information from those who have experienced it and through prayer. I feel this is one of best decisions I have ever made. I would do it again without hesitation.
