Thank you, canterk! Btw, I don't know why, but maybe one week ago I've started to read horror LL stories, mostly from the old diaries in this forum about bad experiences with Indian or Turkey butchers. I can't explain why I am doing that, maybe for the same reason some people like to watch horror movies (I am not horror movies fan and I've never understood this genre). I hope that I won't become one more horror story.

26 day: 1 cm 6 mm (actually 2 cm with initial 0,4 mm gap!). Pain is low, sleeping is pretty good, PT also is going ok. My current main concern is balance. Today I almost fell on the ground. It would be a disaster. I can't keep balance at all while standing, I need to handle something. So today I told that to PT guy and he showed me very simple exercise: stand up near a wall behind you while keeping walker in front of you. And then try to keep balance, without handling the walker. If you fell back - you will recline to the wall. If you fall into front - you will handle a walker.

Are you doing the nailing or just stay with externals? Is LATN right?

Yes, I am doing LATN (nailing). Too long to stay with externals...

Hey MorningStar, glad you have little pain. Question for you, do you feel you would have been able to work remotely after a week?

Hey, man, thanks! Actually I've started to work after 4 days since the surgery, it was no problem for me. The main problem is PT sessions 4 days a week which destroys about 3-4 hours everytime. But if you are flexible with your work, then all good.

Oh my G-d!!! You give me so much hope. Unfortunately V21 is having a hard time and some pain, when I asked him, he didn’t sound too enthusiastic about working. I really wish him a good recovery, but it’s so refreshing to hear it can be done! See you on 10/27.

Glad it is going well!

What have patients in Athens, Greece found themselves using amazon the most for in practice? Ex: what things useful for the LL journey are better ordered on amazon rather than trying to find them on greek websites or locally?

I don't know, man, hard to say. Actually I haven't bought anything from Amazon yet while I am here. But now I am thinking to buy this thing for stretching: https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B073W9JCDZ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
