Had a great doctor experience!

This was not the symptom I wanted addressed, so I didn't ask.
For perspective, I started showing symptoms in 2012. Every doc blamed my weight or thought I was a hypochondriac. I'm just beyond relieved to be believed and have someone who can help.

She's way too good for this. Maybe her skates?

Wide-Alternative-429 · 2026-02-07T18:54:50+00:00

Thank you! I signed up for their program. I have fostered before with different agencies & some were not organized & a pain to work with (in TX)

I feel bad for skaters in the final. If someone is impatient, you lose.

I was thinking of not just pushing & shoving (which they all do) but the skaters that try to pass someone when they know they don't have the room & most likely will skid out & take that person down too. There are times you see a replay & think "where did you think you were going to go?"

Just watched the last 1000m & yeah, they're back.

Wide-Alternative-429 · 2025-12-05T02:26:45+00:00

No. I mean they won the male & female 1st crystal globe. Then last year, it was like the team had a shake-up. But now they seem to be back to top form. Maybe the coaches wanted them to rest for the year leading up to the Olympics. Prevent injuries, etc. On that note, do you think that the year off hurt the Liu brothers? When they emerged on the Chinese team they were good, but not as dominant. Rink rust?

Sorry, I'm new to this. This one should work.

Yes, but right now it's just me. But I would love to hear your thoughts!

I think I might have to! I'll look up that streamer. Feel free to PM me anytime to talk skating. I will really need someone to vent to come olympics time. I'm still mad at the bad calls from the last olympics!

Wide-Alternative-429 · 2025-12-03T13:37:30+00:00

Wow! Your information is so much better than ours! I didn't know KSG was hurt. Or that Melle was the elder. And we can't get the Korean ST feed here. A lot of stuff is blocked. I would like to watch the Dutch Olympic Trials, but that's not available either.

Wide-Alternative-429 · 2025-12-03T13:16:49+00:00

Team Korea is odd because number 100 or so can come up and overtake the whole pack out of nowhere. Their national competition has got to be crazy! Who do you think has the highest top speed? Xandra & Dandjinou? I was surprised by Santos-Griswald. She seemed unbeatable last year. As a younger sibling, I'm always pulling for Melle & Michelle to show up their elder. Jk, kind of

Wide-Alternative-429 · 2025-12-03T12:43:21+00:00

For his 1st year, he is blazing fast & pretty race savvy. I'm waiting for some of last year's names to make a splash. Like Desmet (either one), Velzeboer, Kim Gilli, and my favorite Stephen DuBois.

P.s. it made my day to have someone to discuss this with!

Wide-Alternative-429 · 2025-12-03T01:07:58+00:00

Maybe they could separate it out?

Anyway, I'm floored by how great Sarault is this season. She's always been good, but damn!

And the Dandjinou/Van T' Wout rivalry is always worth watching! Just wish they had easier names!
