I just spoke to Lana from grace recovery house and I was under the impression she charged $100/n but she said she raised her prices to $120//n but if she gets a full house she will charge $100 which I am willing to pay but the 20$ diff adds up. So if any of you girls are planning to stay at GH please let me know. We can save some money !

prettii 7 Apr 2013
Sorry!I'm doing great, my belly is stretchmarkless! Not even a tiny mark so excited about that! But my belly button doesn't seem to be healing as fast as the incision but I've read that that's normal. It's really scabby the incision scar is not bad I put a prescribed form of Neosporin on it my dermatologist prescribed me the only thing is I'm always sitting up and driving so my lower ab (under my BB and about my incision) always seems to be bulgy and swollen. I wear my garment 24/7. I wish I knew some tricks to quicken the healing process! But everything seems to be going great!
