Mr. Magician post your video for all of us to see this medical wonder. You know that I am a doctor myself and you are talking crap like this with me. You know how many k-wires would be used, how much muscle immobility that would cause, nevertheless to speak nerve entrapment, pin cutting, reduced blood flow because of all this inbuilt swelling and pressure and chances of infection would be through the roof in such circumstances. Liers like you should be shunned off this forum. Better answer me with a video otherwise don't bother to reply.
By the way, it should be a walker, not a stretcher. Google it, you will get your answer.
I stood with walker against the door for complete 10 minutes today. 
These days while doing physio I do get a bit of shin pain which is normal because of all the pressure it bears from my physio. Standing for 10 mins or so has become an easy task for me now.
I haven't taken much of analgesics in the last 1.5 month. Hope it goes on like this only.
I do upper body exercise twice every day, along with it I do take up lots of protein to help build my muscles. Time seems to be passing so fast now. Hope to see my complete result soon.
That has to be the most unstable Ilizarovs I ever saw.
If I were you I wouldn't stand much after about 3cm because I think that these pins will bend and you'll risk malunion.
Keep strong!
