The new me


The beginning of the new me

Okay, ladies, I'm all done! Surgery was on May 6th. I am now on day 8 of recovery. Could not be more pleased with the outcome and my stay at the Che Tica Recovery centre. It has been amazing, I found Dr. Lev to be very warm, kind and easy to talk to. Rueben and Lorena the owners of the Che Tica Ranch have been nothing but kind and gracious. They treat me like a queen. Che Ticas grounds are spectacular & breath taking. The cottages are cute, warm, cozy, inviting & beautiful!. I'm in the Grinwald.. When I look out of one of my (5) windows there are cute little sheep grazing in the pasture. The food is amazing absolutely everything tastes so good!!! I love Ruebens famous Sunday barbecue, but have to say Lorena's mashed potatoes are the best I have ever had!!!. I. Could eat them by the bucket full!. They provide rich, delicious home made comfort food served with a lot of love. I chose the Santa Lucia clinic for my surgical centre recommended by the Dr. Lev, A also because of the great pricing. Nurse Freddie was my angel, his loving touch was medicine for my soul... I wish I could remember the other nurses name as she was so caring & attentive also. My nursing care transition to the Che Tica was seamless. I can't say enough about the top notch care in Costa Rica. All I can say is you won't be disappointed. Nurse Francis is just amazing as all the online reviews Of Che Tica say. She is the most beautiful, caring person inside and out & truly cares for all of her patients. So here is a before & day 8 pic!

My exciting flight detour once the volcano exploded

I was due to arrive in San Jose, Costa Rica, the evening of May 4th for surgery scheduled May 6th. But due to the eruption of the Turillaba volcano, and the subsequent closing of the San Jose airport, we were re routed to Minauga, Nicarauga. Nicarauga treated us amazing. The security officers allowed us to use their personal cellphone to make calls. They then whisked us off to nearby hotels for the evening. They provided us with dinner & breakfast, and even special boarded us, so as to eliminate usual and burdensome waiting times. As soon as my flight arrived in Costa Rica, early the following morning going through customs was made fast and easy. Rueben & Lorena from Che Tica Recovery were waiting for me with open arms as I walked out of the baggage claim. They stayed abreast of my whereabouts the total time of the unexpected volcano event. They took me straight to the Che Tica Ranch where they had a beautiful lunch prepared for me yum!, next they were rushing me off to my pre op never skipping a beat. The coordination between Rueben, Lorena, Nurse Francis and Dr. Lev was perfect.
