Thanks for the reply KK

I have a few questions I'd like to ask
1/ How long do you intend on staying in India for? Just for the distraction phase or will you be staying there until frame removal?
2/ Could you take some pictures of the hotel you are currently staying at, when you are ready of course and only if you can.
3/ How did you pay the hotel? In instalments or did you pay for your whole stay in one transaction?

I'll be here just for distraction. Dr Parihar said I should be fit to leave in the second or third week of October. I can take pics later but here's the link to the hotel I'm staying at so you can get an idea of what it's like. It's about 5 minutes away from Dr Parihar's clinic by auto rickshaw. www.hotelmaharana.com

I'm paying the hotel in one payment once I leave but they will give you other payment options if you ask. I got a discount rate due to extended stay of 2877 INR per day, which is around $46 USD. They have their own restaurant,  complimentary wifi, all rooms have a private bathroom and shower, HDTV with cable access, and laundry service which is a separate charge.

Biggest challenge for me is getting used to Indian cuisine. I just want a steak or a burger.

Felt like posting a video showing how easy it is to distract with the turning devices put onto the frames. Every turn equals .25 mm of distraction.

I've got swelling on my left calf and an aching pain when I walk on that foot. My right shin is sensitive to touch. I haven't really experienced any pain due to the distraction itself though.
