It's our last weekend together before the surgery and we already have a full house of family who have arrived. Abuelita Vilma arrived last week, Toti, Tia Lorena, Tio Alex and David arrived a few days ago and we are picking up Dayle and Sheila from the airport today. It's going to be a full fun house for the next couple of days that will keep our minds busy before Tuesday. We're having theme nights and everyone is assigned a theme for cooking so today is Italian night and Tia Lorena is preparing a huge feast!!
Tia Ana was so gracious to put all the schedules and themes together and sad she won't be here this week, but if I get to go back to California shortly after the surgery then She will come help me out once I'm back in San Jose!!
We also settled in to Gloria's new apartment and the location is literally steps to the hospital. She found a three bedroom place where my dad and I will go once we're released and stay there until necessary. We've been slowly filling up this 3 bedroom place with beds and little stuff. I even found myself "shopping" in all the closets at my parents house to see what I wanted to take. I don't have a Costco card but I'm pretty sure shopping and picking out stuff that I wanted to take (for FREE!) beats any Costco. But don't worry, I ended up only taking the essentials like the bottle waters, soap, toilet paper. I was practical and would like to prove to all of you that would survive in simple settings like the woods or camping situations. The 5 star hotel is always desirable and necessary, but I'm a simple girl too :)
Many of you have requested the hospital address and my parent's address in Long Island so here is the information!
After the surgery, my dad and I will be recovering at the Milstein Hospital Building for 4-7 days, depending on how everything goes:

My parents address in Long Island:
