🚨 *WERE WE READY FOR THIS?! | Our Panama Medical Emergency*

Nobody relocates to Panama expecting to end up in the emergency room—but realistically, if you're going to LIVE in another country, you also have to prepare for the possibility of getting sick.

In this video, Cass & Sedrick give a brief health update as Sedrick prepares for an upcoming surgery, but more importantly, we talk about *WHY we were prepared to navigate a medical emergency in Panama without panicking.*

We discuss:

🏥 Why your Boots on the Ground should include touring hospitals—not just restaurants and tourist attractions

👨🏾‍⚕️ Why you should establish a GP *before* you're sick

📋 Why we preregistered with Pacífica Salud before ever needing emergency care

🇺🇸 How we verified our BCBS Federal international coverage directly with our insurance carrier

💳 Why an international hospital may request a deposit and what a *Guarantee of Payment/Services* means

📞 Why you need your insurance company's international department phone number AND email saved

🩸 Why knowing your blood type and making your hospital aware of important medical information in advance matters

🗣️ How our limited Spanish and Google Translate have worked throughout labs, radiology, MRI, nursing and other hospital departments

❤️ And most importantly—why preparation allowed us to concentrate on *Sedrick instead of trying to figure out the healthcare system during an emergency.*

Were we prepared for THIS specific medical emergency?

*No.*

Were we prepared to HANDLE a medical emergency in Panama?

*100% YES.*

We prepared ourselves *emotionally, financially, educationally and spiritually* for the reality that LIFE happens—even in paradise.

If you're relocating to Panama, don't just prepare for your visa, condo, restaurants, beaches and social life.

Prepare for LIFE.

And healthcare is part of life.

🙏 Sedrick is receiving excellent care, and we appreciate every prayer, message and expression of love from the Butler Brigade. For now, we're protecting his privacy, limiting visitors and allowing him to concentrate on preparing for surgery and recovery.

If this video motivates you to do anything, let it be this:

*GET YOUR MEDICAL PLAN TOGETHER BEFORE YOU NEED IT.*
