yes, mine was actually kind of start,ta,ling when I was made to realize it. I used to be six four my whole life, since early high school, it was the eighth grade where i grew up, and I remember the days when I walked hunched over all the time like some pre Cambrian hu,man, then somehow learned to upright myself by the time I hit tenth grade in another school, in another town. any,way, I broke my back a long time ago, or actually bad fractured a vertebra, or something like that . . . and I think because of it, I lost almost two inches in height, because i still remember the feeling in time when the doctor told me at a routine check up, "no, you're only six two and then some."
