I needed a place to spend the night after out-patient surgery, and Mariana's place was 3 miles away from the clinic. When I found out I would be released at around 1 pm, I asked if I could check in at 2 pm instead of 3 pm. Mariana said yes. In the end, I made her and her mom hurry for nothing because I ended up arriving at 3 pm. However, the fact that she was willing to be accommodating greatly reduced the normal stress that accompanies any surgical procedure. Her guest house was the perfect place to recover in full privacy and comfort. Her mom welcomed us, and on the kitchen table she left fruit, water, and flowers. I am deeply grateful and feel very fortunate to have found their place.
