You can definitely do the rebandages yourself. With physio, do a few sessions with a trainer. Once you know the routine, do them yourself. Did you email Dr. Kulesh? He can provide you a file that can answer most of your question here. When are you planning to do your LL with them? I will go there this coming summer.
I have aready talked to him and analyzed file that he sent. I am also thinking in summer, therefore trying to save some money. Only problem for me is not to afford to stay in hospital for 3-4 month. So, I need to rent house and neesd to have someone (any relatives) to stay with me there in order to take care of me. But unfortunately, my father and mother are working and brother is studying so they can't come with me

You could hire a caretaker to come once a week or as necessary, help clean and do laundry. Grocery stores deliver as well.

Around what month in the summer? I am thinking of coming back in 3 months hopefully if my bones consolidate fast and i regain my rom and just getting the second part of my cross lengthening done. We could probably rent a house and see if dr kulesh can help us find somebody to bring us food im sure we will save alot of money that way. Changing bandages is easy. I would do them myself or my wife would do them but its nothing you cant do alone.

Yesterday i had the hexapods installed and i started the correction process. I was only able to lengthen to 4cm as the week before leaving to Russia i got really sick and had to stop lengthening for 4 days. My body was so weak and the pain was too much. Dr kulesh says i will lose about 3mm during nailing on my tibia so he suggested lengthening at the same time as correction so i will end up with my goal of 4cm. So far correction is painless. I feel a little tugging but nothing too major. 4 more days of correction than i will have surgery to lock in the nail on my femur and instal nail on tibia and finally remove the fixators. Im really looking forward to it.

Maybe after may, as my senmester in university will finish on that time. You are coming with yout wife or alone? I am not thinking about cross lengthening, I will have femur lengthening ( dr Kules said it is better to lengthen your femurs separately). As you said, renting a room with someone is really good opinion to save money

Why do I see only GTA pictures when I'm clicking on links ?
Is this a sort of joke or did you intentionally upload them ?
