Travelling with US citizen friend

[Meli BZ 3]

My girl friend is applying again for a tourist visa in Colombia, our plan is that I'm going there to get plastic surgery and she's travelling to US with me to stay for a week.

Do you recommend that she adds me as her travel companion on the DS-160 and saying that's the purpose of her travel? Helping me on the trip and visiting for a week?

 

She was denied a couple months ago under section 214(B).  She said she was staying with me but we didn't add that we were travelling together or my surgery, do you think this would help her case or could it look bad that she's not only staying a here but travelling with me?

I might travel with my kids (6 and 8yo), would it be a stronger case to say she's helping me because I had surgery and travelling with  the kids? In that case, should I add them as travelling companions as well?

TIA!

What strong ties does she have to return to Colombia? Applying after a couple of months sounds desperate
