I think going to get LL with someone can save some money on an already expensive surgery. I mean you still have to pay for the surgery itself but you can split accommodations costs, assistive personnel costs, transportation, food, and maybe even get a deal on other stuff like PT, plus it would probably be more encouraging for the journey.

I could definitely see this having a few cons, especially having two people being logistically on the same page. I mean you would have to both have to be done saving at the same time and go to the same doctor for close to the same amount of time. Having an LL partner would probably be more appealing to those who planned on going by themselves, I think those who have family to go with them and help them would probably prefer that instead.

Has anyone ever even done something like this before? Would you ever get an LL partner or would you prefer to ago alone? When are you all planning on having surgery?
