Running,
Thanks for all the kind thought and well wishes!! I understand all of your and your husbands concerns and if you read my posts it will walk you through the exact concerns from my wife. As I sit in Quiron hospital responding to your thread I can promise you that there are few places in the States that care for their patients like Quiron and Dr. Clavels staff does. I pray that you get a chance to have Dr. Clavel work his magic on you because it is truly a gift. Not to scare you but if you look at the statistics of the surgeries offered in the states at sometime or another most end up with a second surgery or some sort of revision. After this experience I am extremely happy with my decision and if I had to make it again it would be a no brainer. Although the surgery was costly it was a small price to pay for my life. God Bless
