We have learned that the screw, which is turned to widen the gap between the rings in the "frame", is attached to the "motor" in "Dr. speak". Up to now, the lengthening process has consisted of straightening the femur. Today, we were told that in two more days, Kristin's leg will be fully straightened! PTL! -- Next, a Russian doctor will make adjustments to the "frame". The process of lengthening the leg will begin, and will be accomplished by turning 2 "motors" equally on both sides of her leg to make the bone seperate..and give the length we need... - these pictures show the position of the "frame" when the straightening started and where it was on Easter weekend...
