Importance of inpersonFamily Support? (surgery in US w/ family care vs abroad)

Edit Post

Hi All,

I would love your opinion on this. I am able to afford the procedure in the US, and I have family that would be willing to stay with me for the first three months.

I've heard that the beginning of the whole LL process is insanely emotionally / spiritually taxing, and for this reason I'm thinking that swallowing the extra cost for US care is worth it to have family by my side. However, I also know that people who do it abroad are able to connect and bond with fellow patients throughout the process. (Note: I am not down to do some turkey or india live-in clinic-- I am mostly comparing (A) US oupatient experience with Family by my side, and (B) some European "live-in" experience if such experience exists).

What are your thoughts?

As always, thank you so much for commenting. I really appreciate the heck out of you all.

Okay thanks for the input. Given that I'm now going just for femur, US cost going to be way more manageable.
