I'm sure getting back the man she married (not to mention no longer having to do EVERYTHING - I know, my husband is doing this right now) will be worth it. Why is she not okay with the trip?
Lil,

She is concerned that if something goes wrong the doctors here that we all think are crazy wont be able to do anything to help or we would have to pay to go back on our dollar for a repair. We can afford it once now but two trips in short succession would be impossible for us. I understand her fears but my fear of pain forever overtakes that fear for me.
