i still like the option of hiring someone to do the actual stretches with me, that might be a good idea, but i will see how i can cope with it on my own first.

the exercises dont require assistance.. so hed basically just watch u exercise.. not really worth paying him every day for nor reason.. ill show u the exercises anyway if ya want..
okay sounds good.
Can you record you when you walking?Is big difference betwen your walking now and before?
could i clean my pin sites and change bandages weekly at home myself, provided i have the necessasy tools and knowledge.
also how long does the process take to change bandages and clean pin sites, is it a 20 minute job?
i only ask because i don't think my GP or private hospital will do such a job, they may do x ray though, but only with referal letter.

yes and not a hard process.. probably takes 10 to 20 minutes..
great, thanks a lot man, a big load of my mind.
hopefully dr. mitkovic will sell me a few months worth of the supplies needed to clean the pin sites as well as cahnge bandages, but we will see when it comes down to that.
obviously if a major infection happens or pin breaks I will have to get a plane back to serbia, but as you have said there is not much of a chance of that happening, but we will see.
also how necessary is the montly x-ray, can it not be maybe an x-ray every 2 months instead? i maen i don't see what the x-ray would show other than how far we are to being fully healed?, in which case can it be done in larger intervals.

during distraction phase id suggest 1 every 2 week.s but once uve finished lengthening, one ever 1.5 months would be fine.. just to check for consolidation
great news getting one every 6 weeks would be easier, my private hospital isn't completly helpful, they are very hesitant about it for some reason but if dr. mitkovics writes a letter in english explanaing the situation it should hopefully be fine, at least they said it would.
