As promised I am going to give you a day by day. I arrived on Tuesday at 12:30p.m., flights were on time, I had no problem finding my way around ( i have never been to cancun) Sheri had sent me a voucher for transport to the condo, walked outside and there was the van, 15 min ride to condo, I met Sheri and didn't even go to the condo , hopped in her van and went to the clinic. Sheri had called me several days before and told me that the doctor had an opening the day I arrive , so I changed my operation date which was originally for Wednesday morning.
Got to the clinic, brought to a room and changed into a gown, at this point it ally hit me that I was really doing this. Blood was drawn , Short while later Dr. Vallco ( I may have spelt that wrong) came in and we talked , I also had my breasts reduced and old implants removed. Before I knew it I walked into another room said hallo.climbed up on the bed and.......lights out, woke up back in my room, head bandaged . There was NO pain, I took a breath and relaxed and fell back to sleep, I remember very soft hands checking my blood pressure and a shot, I believe one of the nurses slept on the sofa because twice I sat up to cough, she was right there. They were so gentle. Next morning Eric , Sheri,s husband came, I couldn't see him very well as my eyes were swollen shut, the left one was not too bad. The nurses showered me , rebandaged me and put me back to bed. They have a awesome restaurant next door , all natural , not added sugar any way I ordered an yogurt , fruit , it was great, all the food you get you order from there. Slept most of the day.
Today, same as yesterday , nurses showered me, fed from restaurant. The nurses took out my I.V. Around 2:30 DR. Came I. To remove drains, I'll be honest not the nicest experience, it hurt a little at times, but the sounds crew Ed me out more than anything else. Now my head had a tight bandage around it that I can't touch for 5 days, a little comfortable, my right eye is still swollen, basically I look like I got run over with a bus! Oh the price of beauty!! Eric deposited me a the apartment, Sheri had already gone shopping for groceries for me as of right now I'm here watching t.v. With my one eye, but feeling fine. I would have done this on the morning after surgery but there is no wifi there. I will keep you posted , tonight I'm going to make a sandwich and relax in bed! Talk to you all later
Feeling great today, my left eye is opening...

It is so cool you are in the same condo I was 8 weeks ago. I was really bored too the first week. I wanted to stay cool and rest in the lazyboy. There really is little pain with a face lift. Only irritations from stitches healing and staples. Once those are gone you feel so good and as Dr Velasco says swelling is part of healing. He told me no ice and dont touch the face.
Its nice you have company even to know there is someone else there to talk to. Of course Sheri and Erik are there with a phone call. Minutes away and so well taken care of. In 12 days you will feel so different and things really heal fast. You can cover bruises with makeup. So happy for you and can hardly wait to see before and after photos
I wrote an update , if you go down the page you'll...

I did feel down the first week as I get so bored on a normal day. I am a very active person.
It took about 12 days where I put lots of cover makeup on and when I looked back I was really swollen but no one notices. I did go for walks in the garden area at night when there was no sun and sat by the pool. Its totally safe. Remember each person heals different and try not to judge too much until about 8weeks. I am wow now as I am still swollen as compared to my normal but love the results so much. Remember you can email me too and talk privated
