Sheeze, I can't believe it's been so long since I updated this, but I wanted to wait until things were really and truly official, and then I wanted to make sure I'd told my family and such before they learned about my plans from a blog.
But I am really going to Chennai, India to get my hip fixed.
Ted is going with me - in July - and we have family and friends who are willing to help with kid and home care. So I've gotten to practice asking for help - really, who is good at that? Not me. But I'm doing it. There is a lot of logistics stuff at the beginning of this process - scheduling, flights, hotels, visa applications - but we're almost through that.
I can't wait to have a hip that works.
Oh. Wow. I'd heard of this (the whole traveling for medical care thing), and I'd known people do it, but I'd never thought of it as something one of my friends (imaginary or otherwise) would do, until the past couple of months. But the person with the most experience should be the one cracking hips open, especially if said hip belongs to a friend (imaginary or otherwise)!
