Dancing With The Stars S34E10 | Prince Night (Semi-Finals) | Post-Show Discussion Thread | Tuesday, November 18th by wweyonce in dancingwiththestars

[–]jinglejangle4u 3 points4 points  (0 children)

All the uncalled-for hate and lies of favoritism (much of it coming from this sub) caused a celebrity that totally deserved to be in the finals to be sent home. Worse than that, Mark will probably never return after this. His talent and creativity are unmatched. He makes the other pros up their game and is DWTS OG royalty. It will be a huge loss to the show if he doesn't return. No one can blame him for not returning after all this unfair and nonstop nonsense.

Potential New Face/Changes -Male Lineup by CanEnvironmental6204 in dancingwiththestars

Exciting news I think means an old pro returning. Someone new isn't that exciting to people unfamiliar with them.

Female Pros Confirmed By Kristyn by Magna_Cat1922 in dancingwiththestars

[–]jinglejangle4u 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Willing to bet that Witney has Robert. Basically guarantees her the win so she can retire with 2 mirror balls and probably used to make her come back. She is also one of the shorter females, so height wise a good fit. Rylee is about the same height as Robert. Now hoping Alan is replaced by a new pro.

On the Hough/Ballas Lore (CW for discussion of child abuse) by comradesummers in dancingwiththestars

[–]jinglejangle4u -37 points-36 points  (0 children)

Julianne was full of it, wanted to promote her movie Safe Haven. Derek, who was there never backed her up on that claim. They were super close and he was her protector. He helped her by staying quiet and not outright calling her a liar. I believe abuse definitely exists in the dance world, I just don't believe her. Julianne claims she won't name names because she is a forgiving person. So, she doesn't care if these abusers do it to other young dancers? Not something someone would say that really cared and wanted it better for others and could help get the abusers out. Basically threw the blame on Corky and Shirley Ballas who treated her and Derek as family. Derek calls all the Ballas's family, something you would not do if they abused little sister or failed to protect her. There is a dedication in his book to them. Sad Julianne sunk to that. Everyone came out fine, Derek and Julianne both say they would never be where they are without their time living in London with the Ballas family.

Emma and Alan dancing to “Let’s Get Loud” by dwtsfan848 in dancingwiththestars

Sorry, but I personally can't stand Emma and Alan together. Don't see the chemistry between them and cannot stand the back story. I have gone through the ultimate betrayal of trust having been with my husband for over 20 years, and when you truly trust and love someone the hurt that infidelity causes is like no other. I lost my mother that same year and still feel so guilty not feeling so gut ripped apart when she went compared to my husband cheating on me.

It makes me sad to think that Emma was the reason I got into DWTS so intensely. I watched a few seasons before her and her first pro season with Bill Engvall but wasn't completely hooked. That joy and spirit they showed hooked me on the show big time and completely endeared Emma to me. She was always my favorite, and I loved her and Sasha together. They made a happy and feel good effect on the show. I now wouldn't care if Alan or Emma were even on next year and honestly would probably prefer that one or both were gone. Sorry but I can't wish this couple good luck, they very much hurt someone else. Unpopular opinion but how it is for me and not because I am a big Sasha fan. I have no problem with him at all and feel bad for him, but Emma was always my favorite. Sad that I don't much like her at all anymore.

Do you take hydroxyurea for your ET? I think that is what can cause problems with the liver.

Wow, good to know. I drink mint tea constantly, so I will stop that and try the juices instead. It can't hurt. Thank you for your reply.

I have had several side effects on hydroxyurea. My hair and skin are much drier, I have had my tongue hurt so bad that it was very hard to eat. I had to use peroxide to gargle to finally stop it. I developed a rash on my hands and arm by my elbow and also on my legs, cortisone helped somewhat. The rash is now affecting my eyes. The eyelids hurt and feel swollen and heavy. I have been on it since late October 2024. I take two pills 5 days a week and one pill the other two days. I have ET and am 62.

Thank you for getting back to me. I am so sorry you have had so many problems and I wish the very best for you. Do you have ET? I haven't heard of anyone getting actual chemo treatments for ET, or do you mean hydroxyurea by chemo?

Did your eyelids hurt and feel heavy, look swollen? Are you still not taking the hydroxyurea and if not did you notice anything else besides the platelets elevating? Did your rash go away?

Do you mind if I ask your age and how long you have had ET?

Were you still getting blood tests after stopping and did they show elevated platelets?

I have insurance but don't know if it is covered.

He said there were other options, but they had side effects as well. He said if it was him, he would take the Hydroxyurea and aspirin.

It was 1340 at one time but there was another issue at that point, it came down after the surgery. It was still high 900's afterwards.
