Forgot to say Good Morning ....

Got a few things to do this morning so I must go...Just wanted to post about Tamar leaving the show also...

Will pop in when I get home.
HUGS everyone...

Oh WOW !!!!!!!!!

This is news.  I was lurking on my kindle and I see the news from April and CEK about Tamar.  This is so much more serious then pneumonia.  I hope she gets better fast.....and to think she danced Monday night.  Thank goodness she went back to the hospital afterwards.  She could have died.  Glad that the Docs. finally found out what was wrong.

------------

In regard to Alexa.  I kind of feel bad for her.  Here Tamar has to withdraw (and for very good reasons) and Alexa was sent home on one of her best nights of the "contest".  Glad to see both her and Carlos support Tamar.  Doesn't seem like she has any "bad" feelings or regrets.  She sounds like a wonderful person, especially after reading Bindi's twitter post from yesterday.  I guess, we will have no elimination next week?  Any news on that?

Well, today is going to be our last "warm" day before a big chill.  Got to get out and do a few things. 

Thanks again April and CEK for the news......Wow.

Good morning, sisters.

I was awake at 5:20  - just a little early to get up and start the household humming.  So I too read my book awhile, took a peek at my laptop, and checked twitter.  That's where I saw the Tamar withdrawing from DWTS tweet from Val.

I thought, "I will have to share this with the Board Members...." and then fell back asleep.

I have been wondering why Val indicated receiving SO MUCH HATE in recent Instagram and twitter comments etc.  And now I wonder if it wasn't from Alexa / Baegas fans.

That would make some sense.  If they were incensed that Tamar would struggle back from the hospital to dance the sad Duet...to prevent automatic elimination.   Causing Alexa on her perfect night to be eliminated.  And subsequently Tamar having to withdraw anyway for medical reasons.  Not saying they are at all justified in their anger...but that's the only group I can think that would be so angry.  This was before the medical withdrawal. It was uncalled for even then, but hopefully the seriousness of the diagnosis has probably shut everyone up.




Mayo goes on to list medical conditions that can lead to the formation of these clots.

But as most probably know....long periods of cramped leg positions, such as long flights or car trips can also lead to this.   Remember Dan Quayle?   or the late, young, military "embedded" journalist?

Prayers are with Tamar.  Such a terrible development.
