CoolguySam should be awake and comfortable in his hospital bed right now; I hope his post-op experience is as pleasant as mine was.
I will try to make sure that Crazy+6 or I call him tomorrow to see how he is doing, and I'll keep you guys updated.

Dr. Sarin diaries are getting to be really good. It's great to see more people going to him for LL.

I have been told that coolguySam had some pain after surgery, but is doing fine now. He should come to the guest house in about two days.

Hey CoolguySam, I hope that you have recuperated from the operation and that you are now in the guest house surrounded by Dryani and Crazy+6 among others. We are all excited to hear from you. Wishing you a successful lengthening!

Hey Sam, so I'm wondering about the round trip aspect. Are you just choosing a return date that's like 4 months out? (I'm estimating around 3 months for lengthening, 1 month consolidation for 6 cm) How does it work if you can't meet your return date?
Great ques.. I booked my round-trip ticket from june 29th till dec. 20th & my goal is 7.5cm. Sarin's assistant advised me to book a round-trip flight for how long you estimate you'll be there (4 months in your case ) & then if need be, it'll be cheaper to switch your return date as opposed to booking 2 'one-way' tickets. Also, although I'm only looking to lengthen 1 cm more than you, I decided to stay 5 1/2 months just to be safe & give myself extra recovery in India (in the event of a longer than expected recovery or complications along the way). And I also chose here over China due to the price & option of doing my femurs (if I can make it through my tibs)  |

Right now I do not have an internet connection in my room. Sunny said it'll be there by the end of today but I am currently using crazy+6's WIFI. I would love to upload some pictures but I don't want to use up too much of Crazy's bandwidth. So I'll just wait.

Hey STsacrifice4LTgain, Good to know you booked your tickets and all set for your surgery. We will meet you in June. Crazy+6 Thanks crazy aka LL Legend.. your diary was a major source of inspiration & motivation for me. I hope all goes well with round 1, because at 5'3"... round 2 is certainly on my mind for the future. How is your recovery going btw? I hope very well my friend. The amount you lengthened through each of your surgeries, in my opinion, puts you in a very impressive & elite class of LL vets.. Very few have done what you did & as much as I wana gain what you have through each surgery (and I'm veryy flexible too), I may be a bit more conservative & shoot for 7.5cms (not 100% sure yet). If I feel like I could hit 8.5cm w/o long-term issues or recovery complications.. I would but i just dont know how my body'll hold up till I go thru the procedure & lengthening process. Any feedback/advice you have on this will be much appreciated |
