I am saving up $20,000 to go to Russia and get it done in the winter of 2015.
Might even be a bit earlier depending on the money I save...
If anyone has information about price and recovery time please feel free to contribute 
Thanks in advance.

Yes that's correct.

I am looking to go to the Illizarov center in the winter of 2015.
I don't mind staying at either of the places.
Quote from: GROWtalORdieTRYING1 on October 05, 2014, 04:23:43 PMmonorail LON external femur, has a contraction rate of 5%.
30% is for cages and not LON.
I agree 30% contracture rate is too high. and not worth the risk.
are they doing a proximal cut? (inserted at the hip)?
Is monorail LON much more expensive than regular cage ?

How much difference are we talking about here?
Also, are there more complications with externals ?
