How long did it take for you to decide? What was the last straw that drove u?

To LL veterans, I would like to ask a few questions.
How long did you contemplate before doing the surgery? And for those hesitating for a long time what was the final turning point which makes you go f** it, it's all or nothing.
Thanks :)

The decision in a matter of hours of first finding out about LL when I was around 17-18 the process to be able to afford it .. 5 years, even a week before the surgery I was still hesitant though, I was thinking maybe I shouldn't do it, it's a lot of money, I'm not going to be able to play soccer as well as I used to, but then I thought ... If I'm in my death bed I would've regretted not doing it when I was young having been able to do it. So I did it.

Thank you to all your replies. You only live once, why live a life of regrets... even if it failed, at least...you know you tried, you did everything in your power to be the best version of yourself that you always wanted. Life is full of risks... i feel like 2021 might be the year I will do this. This height dysphoria being 5'5, always feeling inferior to people around me. I just can't see myself living happily with this for the rest of my life. I feel like I would never be taken seriously as a man like that.
