Quote from: Auron on December 15, 2017, 12:33:03 AMYes, your proportions definetely look much better for a girl now. I hope it works as a motivation for your recovery. I had a look at your insta, you're smart and beautiful just like Helloworld said, so don't waste that gift. We are not misfits at all 

Yes, it's strange that I've long tibias compared to femurs )   Hope all is good with you!  Happy 2018!  May all our dreams come true!!!

No, we're not misfits, we're just the courageous and sometimes foolhardy bandits who dare to dream, and make it reality at all costs.

Quote from: jexus on November 07, 2017, 03:01:38 PMWooooow you're a Harvard grad ??
That is my biggest dream.

Which department did you graduate from?

Btw you are really pretty and tall for a woman.
How did you manage to stay this good? I've looked like crap in 3 months after surgery.

Everything is okay, these days will surely pass and you will continue your life as a tall beautiful Harvard graduate which is the dream of every woman.

Hi Jexus,

Sorry for the late reply.  I did Economics from Harvard College (Faculty of Arts and Sciences) and did a minor in art conservation (geeky chemistry stuff involving spectroscopy).

What do you mean by you looking like crap after 3 months post-surgery?  Are you talking posture, duck ass etc?  Or face? 

I'm currently in Asia, and have been sleeping almost 14-17 hours a day, doing a lot of physio and walking in the pool and just reading on my Kindle, by the sea.  It's helped a lot with my psychological stress level and hopefully, my body will relax more.

Still hoping, praying and begging for the bones on my right leg to fuse on its own.  Apparently, sometimes that can happen, spontaneous healing...  well trying to just keep positive vibes going...

This is me right now

Looking at the picture there are only three possibilities:
1. you send us accidentally a picture of your daughter
2. you misrepresented your age because as a minor you would not be allowed to do LL
3. you discovered a revolutinary procedure to get younger or at least look younger.
If 3, then please share with us!

    LL makes you younger 

Actually, it runs in my family, hypermobility.  Our skins are stretchy and do not wrinkle much except crows' feet and eyebags around the eyes.  My mum who's 72 doesn't have wrinkles either, just eyebags, same with my aunts who're in their 70's, they pass for 50's

It's pretty scary but as I said before, it has its pros and cons.  Hopefully, the pros having stretchy collagen means I can eventually stretch my soft tissues to match the 10cm runaway length.  Cons were when I was lengthening, because I was so flexible, it was hard to find sufficient tension to get a click     hence, the trauma of manual clicking.   Total PTSD.  Currently helping various patients survive their manual lengthening procedure and reach their goals safely.

Just found out too that another doctor who's manual nails failed after the patient suffered from non-union from 2 years had abandoned his patient citing nothing else he can do.  I find this behaviour rife amongst LL doctors, is unscrupulous and contradictory to their charming/attentive first consultations    So please beware, when crap hits the fan, your miracle wiz doc might turn into a snake and slink away...

Hello Unicorn! I hope you're having an amazing start of this new year.
I have spent a few hours reading your diary and also created this account just to send you this message!
Your diary is really eye opening for me and others.
I also have gone through your IG account and happy to see you recover.
I also have a question. The duck walk you're talking about, is it perm or just temporary? Is it going to be fixed?

Best of luck!

Hi Pattycake,

Thanks for reading.  It's eye opening because the truth of the process is never clear.  I'm just illustrating the moments when I try to walk without crutches.  I spend 90% of my day in crutches.

The lordosis/duckass happens because my quad and psoas muscles in front are too short for my longer femurs.  As a result, it pulls my entire pelvis downwards, creating a duck ass in the back and an inward turning left leg. With time, the body soft tissues should slowly be able to stretch out to match my femurs and my pelvis will hopefully straighten again.

The duck walk happens too because I don't have sufficient glute muscles to walk properly, hence, I lean from side to side harnessing momentum from each side of my body to propel myself forward.

I had my first surgery in July 2016, and to this day, I'm still unable to stand up without hand reinforcements, my left knee cannot straighten completely flat on the floor and cannot contract fully.  But the biggest impediment is, my right leg has a 10cm non-union gap, which can fracture/shorten if my nail bends or breaks.  I'm not looking forward to a large bone graft which might never work and create more complications like infections etc.

So, I'm just trying to stay positive and show improvements on IG, but the reality is still plagued with aches and  pains around the knees, where the pins are nailed and even around the empty gap.  I'm still on A LOT of medication and supplements everyday.  I really really long to walk like a normal person again (I even envy toddlers who walk so sure footed than I).  Without crutches, I have to stop every 20 metres to catch my breadth.

But before this, I couldn't even sit in a car with my knees folded 90 degrees without pain, or I could not even stand on my crutches for more than 5 minutes and I couldn't crutch far without bending over and panting hard.

I do see improvements and I can only beg my body to help me speed up the healing    Now I swim a lot everyday to improve my back and straighten and strengthen my legs.

Thank you for following me, I'm here to answer any questions you have!  Take care and happy 2018 to you!

Glad that you're recovering Unicorn, even if slower than you want. Swimming sounds like a great idea, good use of muscles without having to carry your entire body weight. Best of luck, stay strong!

You are very brave Unicorn. Thank you for explaining.
Oh, what one does for their dream. You have gone through a lot and time will slowly fully heal you.

Btw wow! Your long legs look stunning. You said you are around 40 years old? Sorry but I don't buy that
