Don't give any more information about your YouTube channel (unless you intend going public with your CLL).

Best of luck with your Stryde journey.

hey a hint wont hurt Femurs & Tibias with Dr Paley, my money is on it being a gaming channel. I assume he's going to keep the surgery a secret as most of us are. I don't think anyone here expects him to post anything about channel, but it's definitely an interesting twist to the diary. Honestly there is so many channels with 2M at this point that it would be almost impossible to guess anyway.

The reason people don't like answering personal questions is because of people like you. Why are you so nosy?

Relax bruce wayne,

Building a channel to 2M takes lot of hard work and dedication and I know he couldn't have done that without a shiit ton of discipline. The fact that he was able to become self made and afford Dr. Paley at such a young age is super admirable. I think the only other LL'er to come close is programdude.  I would ask every LL'er who was able to accomplish something similar more details about how they did it.

Obviously anyone who writes a diary will not reveal more details about their personal life then they are comfortable with. Some post pictures of their face and some don't even tell us what country they are from. But he made a diary so I think it's ok for us to ask questions?

Yes good point! I actually am thinking of making a documentary style Youtube video to document the jounrney. When I was first year university I went through chronic depression when I had a reality check that the average girl was taller than me. I felt like a man stuck inside a child's body, among college kids. I litterally cried almost every single day, to the point where I thought of killing myself. I felt like everyone else was so spoiled! People complain about things there were real solutions to. I had friends who were overweight who would just complain, when they could just go to the gym for a year or two and fix that. On the other hand, I felt helpless, I felt like no matter how much "work" i put in to getting taller, it was just physically impossible. I didn't know that LL was a possibility! Im sure there are 1000's of kids out there who were in the same position as me crying theirself to bed wishing for a chance to effect their height. The goal of the documentary is to give hope & shed light on the reality that there IS a possibility but it takes alot of work

anyway that was my mini rant haha, we'll see if I end up uploading the video or not, but I will at LEAST film the documentary for sure because I'd like to write this entire surgery off as a business expense which I could only do if I filmed it (maybe)

Preparation:
From what Angelique told me (she is responsible for all appointments)
for the first 2-3 weeks I will be in a wheelchair so I will need
- a hotel with wheelchair transporation (they sent me a list of options)
- a caretaker

I went ahead and asked my friend if he would be down to fly out to West Palms (flight covered by me), live with me for 3 weeks as I have a job opportunity for him. I told him I'd give him $1000 Canadian & he agreed. To me this is a win because the caretakers quoted me $10,000 USD for 2 weeks of care, screw that!

after I stay in the hotel for 2-3 weeks, I will be living in an Airbnb (booking that now ish) for the rest of the 3 months

Hey MyEvolution,

Super stoked for this diary since you have exactly the same measurements as i do, the exact same goal, only way more money x) That being said, wish you all the best for your goal! Will be lurking hard here.  Femurs & Tibias with Dr Paley

Update:

Height after measuring with doctor stadiometer: 5'4

so far I have completed my pre op & consultation, tomorrow is my surgery, nervousness is starting to kick in. According to the Med team, because I am using STRYDE I may not even need a wheelchair. That being said my caretaker will be arriving in 4 days and I will either be on crutches or a wheelchair for a couple days-1week.

I have also started a video diary / documentary which I may or may not post depending on what I decide but so far, all of the logistics have been taken care of, and we are ready to go

I am to arrive at the hospital at 6am tomorrow morning, food consumption stops at midnight tonight, and clear liquids like water stops at 4am
I am doing femurs
I will keep you guys updated as much as I can. Let the journey begin, today my body will change, forever. No more being very short.
My goal for this is to gain the full 8cm, and then tibs next year for 5-8cm (whatever my body will allow)
Paley said that it is possible to do 8cm but it depends if your body will allow it. My goal is 16cm so I can be standing at a bold 5'10. That would change my life forever

I am ambitious, my work ethic is crazy. Here we go!
