What medical procedure would take a year to complete? And will you have to make it to a border every 3 months in this condition?

Very expensive braces. Cheaper in America with having to put $20,000 US in the Thai bank just to start but okay. Guess that would work.

I see it more as a retirement visa, but now you have to pay for your 90 day report. It's just a revenue stream internally. I've never seen anyone who actually needed medical treatment and couldn't travel have issues with the current medical visa scheme.
