I guess this brings a whole new meaning to "Taking the time to stop and smell the roses" for your husband.
Terps! So glad to read your OP. What good information you've given anyone considering this kind of surgery (or pretending not to consider it ).
I knew it was a big deal, but it sounds like a REAL big deal.
FYI, I've been to India 4 times. I bet you're going to LOVE the trip.

Not because you have to pay it forward or backward to justify your own benefits. She means that this is YOUR accomplishment, and accomplishing that for yourself is enough. You do not have to fix everybody. And you do not owe anyone for the benefits you have earned. They are YOURS!" Ann2
