Small town phenomena. Many inhabitants are related. |
It's very possible there is no relationship between them at all. The name Montes originates from Spain and is fairly common in Mexico and elsewhere.
For example, there are several listed in our Telmex directory (not on the Baja). Cristina's apellido paterno is Montes. These thugs paternal
surnames are Quintero and Aguirre, with Montes being their apellido materno.

Again, from Dra. J who used to work in the Hospital Militar: they will no longer admit non-Mexican Military patients. They may treat you, but you
can't check in.
In fact, the local Military Hospital won't even allow civilian owned vehicles on base as they used to. They have to be parked outside on the street.
I doubt this is a local policy.

I hope that when Ron has recovered to the extent that he is close to release, that consideration be given to have an MRI completed in TJ. Just sayin.

All the better, there should be no reason not to have one done.

I think someone mentioned earlier that a CAT scan is best for head injuries. just sayin - either way, it would be nice to know if he has had ANYTHING
other than just blood tests and the basics.
And how he is doing after his surgery yesterday.

while narco fashion does exist, the fashion choices of narcos are also choices of many others.
i am amused that nomads are fashionistas! so aware of the trends and whims of youth!

Coppel knockoffs or border counterfeits no doubt. I have a lot of these rugby team shirts and it ticks me off I can't wear them in Mexico any more
for fear of being mistaken for a narco.

Hello Again Dennis,
Latina, you are correct, the Mexican military hospitals are excellent both for emergency and after care.
Dennis, you said:" . . . . . . . "they will no longer admit non-Mexican Military patients. They may treat you, but you can't check in." . . . . .
. . . "I doubt this is a local policy".
They not only will take vets from the USA but also civilians as well. . . . . . . . all depends upon the base commander. Here on the Mainland of
Mexico there are many recent reports of ex pats getting medical attention and care from the military hospitals, in several different states. You are
still required to pay for the services rendered; however there have been reports of a few folks paying nothing at all. It is my understanding it is
entirely the call of the Base Commander, so that makes it a local policy. I suspect it also just maybe has to do with whether it is an Army, Marine,
Navy or Air Force base.
I would also suspect that a personal visit to the military base hospital near you would also be a good idea, if for no other reason than to meet the
Base Commander and thank them for their service. Diplomacy can go a long way, especially in Mexico, I would suspect including in Baja.
Remember . . . . . . . the only thing for sure in Mexico, is that nothing is for sure! (smiling)
Regards,
robt65

ISSSTE....Social Security.  More body-bags come out the back door of that place than at Walter

Know your medical provider.

There is a Western Union at the Elektra store on Gastelum between AV Benito Juarez and Cuarta in zona central Ensenada.
It is between the Calimax and the Waldo.
If the family wants to accept money they could collect it there, only a few blocks from the hospital.
Giving your money directly to a family member would be the safest way to see it go to the intended purpose.
Note: There are organized thieves in Ensenada. Don't collect a big batch of money and walk down the street alone!

We didn't go to a clinic. We went to Dan's Bro In Law's xray lab. Extremely successful, but without MRI capabilities as well.
The MRI Lab, Burboa Radiologists on Rayon, can answer your questions. I don't have their contact info.

I'm not sure. My best guess would be when he finds out who is sending him money so he can pick it up at one time. That's just a guess. Please U2U him
for a concrete answer.
Edit: I think he would have preferred that I send it to Tijuana but Dummy me sent it to Ensenada.
