Growing up I had everything going for me. I was an athletic scholar at my high school, and was on the varsity soccer team in 10th grade. I was on the track and field team and went to states for the 800m.

I was accepted into college with a scholarship and majored in mechanical engineering. I got several great internships, with Honda, Ford, and now I have a 6 figure job in my mid 20s. I had all this success, but there was something that always bothered me.

I was 5'9. I wasn't even in the top 50th percentile of height guys in America. If a 6'2 guy walked into the room I was immediately dwarfed by him.

For the past 3 years I have been saving money for leg lengthening surgery. I will get one surgery on my femur that will raise my height by 3 inches to 6'0. I will then get another surgery on my tibia to raise my height another 1.5 inches to 6'1.5. This will be a 2 year process of surgery and recovery, but at the end I will be in the 93rd percentile of height. I will be who I am meant to be.
