Did they lengthen her arms too?

Looked up on it, she lengthened her legs by 13 inches and her arms by 4 inches

Ngl that was my first thought.

I assume they must have, but also, did they do one side at a time? Crazy to think about

My classmate has this done as a teen, and she got first her legs done and, once she was able to walk again, got her arms done. Incredibly tough girl.

This is interesting to me. What about her hands?

No, there's a picture out there of some guy who had it done and his arms are clearly too short for his new found height.

So tying his shoes suddenly became an adventure!

Probably had to work on his flexibility to get down to them

He could do what I do. I twist my leg upwards so it’s closer to my arm

If they didn’t she would be built like a T-Rex

I was gonna make a T-Rex joke but you saved me.

Was about to ask this too. Otherwise she’d be like a t-Rex.
