You really found his comment hilarious ? well I wrote haha but not bcs he's funny .. you know this kind of haha...

I just find his general pessimism quite entertaining, funny and should be taken lightly not seriously. That's why I have named him Sweden the pessimistic comedian!

Stay strong and positive Diso and I bet you will prove Sweden wrong and get the $100 off him!!

Thanks Diso, I mean I've got saved more than 10K but I don't want to use it all, and I don't want any nails inserted in my bone marrow this is why I would prefer external only even if it takes several months. I gave my social life up long time ago and another year or so wouldn't make any difference to me since I have no rush to come back home + I play guitar and believe me this keeps me entertained all day long. I have thought of going in October when it's winter and may not need AC and choosing Sparsh Hospital in Bangalore due to its reputation and the trajectory of the doctor that operates there. One more question, I was thinking of getting a medical visa and just buying a one-way ticket since I wouldn't know for sure when I will come back; do you think that this will be a problem when arriving to India? I mean, I don't want to have any problems at the airport for not having bought a round trip ticket. If you could find out for me I would appreciate it. Thank you for your advice.

I suggested to go back home because I supposed that you'll not have to pay for anything over there...
I really want everything goes well with you leo, I'm not saying India is not good destination for having LL, but seriously from what I see they almost take everything easy..it's like if they don't heard of thing called complication..  so be careful when you gonna choose your Dr.. Did you consider Russia ...? I think it will cost you 6000 USD over there...

Regarding the visa, don't worry.. no need for round trip ticket when I came here (to India ) I had just one way ticket and I didn't face problem with that..

and my visa was tourist visa I paid 8000 INR to convert it to med visa ..

just take appointment here and let one of employee in international dp in the hospital that you'll choose to complete the rest.. you could do it by yourself too..

you can extend it in the same way ... but be aware to extend it b4 it expired .. otherwise you would have to pay plenty.. I was late one month so I paid last time when I went to extend it 6000 INR.. (1200INR for extension -4800 plenty)

Diso, thank you for your info. One more if you don't mind. I'm trying to decide how many days I should book my hotel for; I mean how long it took you from the moment you agree with the Dr to have the surgery to be accepted into the hospital? And I'm guessing the apartments you rent are not furnished right? I suppose  I have to buy my own bed, chairs, TV, etc, right? Thank you so much and keep us posted with your recovery.

I'm staying at hotel since I couldn't find a good apartment..
the apartment is not a good option since I stated it's hard to find one in grand floor.. and I can't choose apartment in 2nd or 3rd floor without elevator...

You can find a service apartment (1bedroom and bathroom) with t.v,cable, AC, water heater but that would be 20,000 INR/month..

with 6000-7000 INR/month, you'll not have ac, tv, or anything else .. just 1 or 2 empty room..
actually I remembered I talked once to a nurse (sister in india) about the apartment and its cost
and she told that she live with her friends in apartment that contains (2 bedroom, 1 kitchen, 1 bathroom, and big hall) and all rooms is provided with AC.. with something around 6000 INR/monthly.. so you may get good deal if you were an Indian.. It also depends in the place Bangalore and Mumbai is much expensive than Delhi.. so Good luck in finding good apartment.. just make sure when you choose one is to be in grand floor, and at least provided with 24h power-back..

I spend one week in hotel b4 the surgery.. 5 days (b4 deciding ), but if you gonna choose apartment then you may need 10days to arrange all things with care-taker..

That's the question  , maybe you should put a more "professional" pic, something like that :

Edit Post

so I google professional pic
and I found the majority of pics with ppl cross their arms .. I dunno WHY!







So I decided to put a pic of little memole crossing her little arms but I could find one
maybe this one will work

Edit Post

Yeah that's better reallyyyyy pro  , maybe you should put "memole" on your resume too. I think its because they are thinking "WTF am i doing working for such a silly company, my life sucks". Ok now if you don't get promoted on this site to chief LL executive then i will just leave this forum.
