 Thank you guys for the comments. Actually my upper body still swings if i dont concentrate on walking. I dont know if its my body or just my brain. When i walk and talk or look around i walk like a penguin but following is an update of my first high heels last night.  LATN Femurs - Dr Singh LATN Femurs - Dr Singh LATN Femurs - Dr Singh

My husband and I. I know that i havent mentioned about him on my journey until now. But yes i am married and on 6th of january will be our second year anniversary. I dont know why i never wrote about him on my diary. I have been really mean and selfcentered since after the surgery from stress and pain. He has been with me the whole journey  and he is a one of a kind type of husband yet i only had my two broken legs on my mind the whole year. My husband paid the remaing small amounts and cared for me dearly while my mom supported me with the main cost. Now is the time to pay back their love and support for me as i m nearly back to normal again.

In a week time, it will be a year anniversay since my very first operation. I made a decision, a goal this time of last year that i have to be back into my normal life and be done with the journey in january 2016 exactly one year time. Unluckly i had to choose the external femurs route. I tried my best, my very best to achieve my goal. And yesterday i truely feel like i got it. Last night i wore my first highheels and the outfit that i had designed and made for myself to a runway show and i felt like I was on top of the world. I walked into the ballroom with this vintage themed attire tall and proud (with no limp or waddle) i swear LATN Femurs - Dr Singh LATN Femurs - Dr Singh and everyone was looking at me, media men flicking their cameras the crowd checking me out and stuffs ...like wispers from my friends"omg she got so tall" "look at m..m..'s height". .and their admirations. Some of my close friends who had seen me waddle just a few days ago made jokes that I pretended to waddle and walk gorgeously in heels so that i can get permision to wear heels again without them worrying about me falling down or slipping. But no i swear i m just more comfortble with them.  LATN Femurs - Dr Singh LATN Femurs - Dr Singh LATN Femurs - Dr Singh LATN Femurs - Dr Singh LATN Femurs - Dr Singh
I m now of average height or taller than some . I no longer fear and secretly denied when people gave comments like ( "Are you m........... ur are soo cute. U are so pretty ". .."U look prettier in "person". "I had always loved you and ur outfit designs") Before in my head my thoughts go like ..ohhh they are just saying nice things. How can i be sooo pretty when im this short. this small.
All of those things are in my past now. I can wear what i want, go where i want and be who i want to be now. Thanks my doctor, my mom and dad and my husband and my friend on this forum.
The are still two things left for me to reach the goal a hundred percent. The scars and my full range of knee bending. They are going steady now bending around 100 degrees. And for the scars i want to be done not later than febuary...but have to see what dr sarbjit plans for me.

Tomorrow i will be having an appointment withan italian  plactic surgeon and will be having scar revision surgery in a few days. My knee bending is around 100. Both dr singh and dr Rodi(plastic and reconstructive surgeon) said my roms could improve after the tissue release and revision surgery.

Hi bluebarbie,

It's awesome that you're now jogging and feeling much happier and confident. I hope your scar revision surgery goes well. It's been great to read your LON femur experience considering how difficult it is supposed to be compared to other forms of leg lengthening.

Looking nice, Barbie. Even with that high waist skirt I can't tell you've had LL. Congrats!

I m going to be having the scar revision surgery in 2 hours. Now i m doing my bending exercise while waiting for it with my mom, husband and the lil house maid. My knee roms have reached around 120 degrees since the past few days. Wish me a successful operation, dears...coz i m feeling really scared that it would interfere with my knee ranges afterwards or the scars would widen again due to skin tension. The surgery includes scar tissue release and fat graft and would be done under general anesthesia. See you soon and ill try to post photos of my scars before and after surgery in the next update.

Hello friends , how have you all been?
Its been nearly five months now since i updated. Firstly i want to tell you all that the revision surgery went well and i had gained much benifits from it. All the fibrious tissues had been released and the scars are only left to fine lines. However I had been down and struggling for the past three months.
As soon as after the scar revision surgery i had to take care of the wounds strictly so that they won't expend and grow larger. That means i couldnt exercise or bend my knees properly. It was very frustrating to struggle in between not losing my gained rom and not expending my scars. I also had to wear the garment 24/7 to flatten my scars and i still do now.
For the time being I m still at 160 ' of roms for left knee and 150' of roms for the right. Thats when i pull my tibias towards my thigh. The flexible range is around 130 '. I still have to do my bending exercise one hour daily.
   I have to use tape to prevent my scars from widening. I have 9 huge scars all together. Because of my great plastic surgeon doctor Rodi from Italy, 6 of the scars are left with just thin straight marks like i had been scratched by a nail on the sides of my thighs. They are still purple now until up to a year they will turn my skin tone.
 I m able to kneel, jog or run now. I can also go up and down the stairs without struggling. But steep stairs are quite difficult to come down especially for my right knee. There is little pain in my right hip at certain times at certain angles which i think would not go away until i have the rods removed. The problems i have now are that i still need time to fully be able to bend my knees without stiffness or discomfort and time for my scars to mature and camoufledge to my skin tone. I cannot pray or meditate nor wear shorts and skirts in daytime.
I m feeling negative and angry to Sarbjit Singh not because he had been a bad doctor but because he had lied me about the scars and not letting me know about this really bad contracture and not being able to bend my knees and whats more he didnt let me know that i wouldnt be able to lay on my sides with those horrible frames for line four to six months. Those are the times of my life that i would fear to death even to think back. If he had warned me those things i doubt that i would undergo lengthening. But anyway thanks to dr Singh that he let me have my journey smoothly without and problems and now i m tall for life. I just regret spending the 2 years of my life unnecessarily and in pain and stress.
I will update again when i gain my full roms and thank you all for being with me through this journey and for your encouragements.

Men can hide their scars because they're hairy but women can't. Women should stay away from LL.
Short women are cute. I prefer a short girl than a tall girl with those scars.
Musicmaker has those scars too even if she did internals. I don't have pics but people told me they are large (they saw her in the gym). Barbie, did you also want to become a model? MMs was a model and her career is destroyed (scars and handicapped). She should be furious with her doctor too. The problem is the same. Dr Singh is a liar as Dr Monegal and Dr Betz are liars. They sell their products and patients are deceived. Not only girls with scars. The teenage boy from Monegal wanted to be a professional sportsplayer and his dreams are over. Doctors lie about athletic abilities too.

Anyone else think this guy is a psychopath?

-He hijacks yet another thread by a valuable member of our community
-Adds nothing of value, only fear and misunderstanding
-ISIS style preaching that women "should stay away from LL", when he wants to do LL himself
-Magically spins MM and Monegal into a thread that has nothing to do with them

Any sympathetic human being can understand that bluebarbie needs support, not this garbage.
