I´m going in a few days on 22nd September 2017 so It would be nice to be with another LL patient and move threw all this together. Please feel free to send me a message.

Hey, Hello Barry ! :D I am Japanese.
I am using Google translation. So it may be wrong English.  :'(

I heard that the hospital of Mitokovic ends renovation at the end of 2017.
However, looking at this forum, I will see someone who is performing surgery.

 Is Mitokovic resuming surgery?
 Is it a refurbished hospital?

 It was doubtful. I am waiting for the answer.

Well there is one LL hospital in Nis, Serbia, he was talking about a new one that is in construction, but yes.
Yes, he does the surgery and he will continue for 8-10 years.
When would you like to start LL ?

Thanks Barry ;) I am impressed.
 Please let me ask another question.

Does the thigh bone perform surgery inside?
It seems that Mitokovic is confident in the outside because of the jungle.

It makes more sense.However i would suggest you to reconsider external femurs:it is a common opinion that it is a barbarian practice

Barry! Thank you. You are my savior. I will contact you if anything is in trouble. I also think I will make the thigh bone external LL. However, outside the thigh outside LL is terrible than shin pain. I'd like to hear your decision later. I hope to find your roommate :)

You should do 7 cm on the femur and tell us how you feel.

Have you considered doing cross lengthening or lengthening one side at a time so you can lay on one side to sleep? I think that would be the only way I would do external femur
