How Tall Do You Think I'll Be?

I recently dislocated my patella in my knee and my orthopedist said he could feel in my growth plate in my knee that I had about 1 or 2 more inches of growing. Right now I'm 14 and I'm 6'4" and weigh 175 lbs. My Dad's 6'5" and Mom's roughly 6 foot. When I heard what my orthopedist said it kinda came to me as a shock. I've always wanted to be taller than my uncle who's 6'8" but with the news I got from my doctor it doesn't look like it. Is there any way I could be taller than him? Thanks for the help!

    You want to be taller? Life is going to be tough enough at your height now. I wouldn't wish being taller on anyone.
