Really enjoying your posts HJ. Your videos are great too. Hope you continue to recover well. How many cm until you stop with tibias?

I mentioned my goal in my latest blog post. But some people don't read it, so here it is again.
My goal is 3.5cm

Thanks, I must have scrolled past it. Do you have any concerns about your wingspan at the end? Seems like even if you go over ~10cm, you still look great.

Speaking of proportions, I was curious what your sitting height is? Congrats on almost being done.
I did not measure my sitting height.
About my wingspan, I have no problems with it and I do not anticipate it to be a concern. I read somewhere that when the deficit of your wingspan is 3.5 inches (9cm) less than your height, your arms start to become noticeably shorter than usual. Every millimeter beyond that, it gets more noticeable. But it's only a matter of perception (that is, how much you really care and how much it gets to you of what other people think of your arm length).
The deficit of my wingspan to height will be well less than 3 inches (about 2.6 inches) and it looks fine to me and everyone else.
i went from +2 inch WS to - 1 Inch WS , nobody noticed or commentted at all.
Hello HJ,
given that we are both doing tibias with Precice 2, started around the same time and and are finishing at 3.5cm as well, Im following your blog very closely. I will be done lengthening in about 10 days, my doc told me to slow down a little towards the end, since the bone healing in my tibias is not the best atm.
Hope your doing better.
Thanks Siegfried. I'm at 3.15cm and I'll be done lengthening in a week to reach 3.5cm.
And about the wingspan to height discussion, I really think it's overrated. For example, I've seen videos by women saying they don't want to date short men. But have you ever seen, or can you show us, a video on dating preferences saying something like, "That guy is 6 feet tall and handsome, but I'm not dating him because his arm lengthen is more like for a 5'9" man".
HI HG
Can you use the walker to the toilet and shower or simply wheelchair?
How are the wounds at Tibias? big marking and obvious?
How are you feeling - any more pains or discomfort?
