Also they cruelly played a TV ad with ballad no 1 music before men’s. Jsyk. It probably would have been nice if Yuzu has been there. 

 

Is his injury still not serious?

 

it's still going from serious to not serious. Two different news sources...we just have to hope it's mild

Thanks everyone for putting up with my epic meltdown. I don’t remember much of it but I’m sure it was annoying and you’ve all been son gracious about it!

More hugs for you.

 

The injury, according to latest update quoting Briand, is still not serious. They're still focused on the nationals. If they still think he can train for nationals, then it's not that bad.

 

Even more hugs for you. I know how difficult it is when you have anxiety, to do something like this and have it be derailed. I don't know what you deal with, but as somebody who deals with panic attacks and functions through them (I'm so used to them) I think you really did wonderfully today. You have time to breathe and gird those loins before the gala.

Eh that's recycled fluff piece. Pay it no heed.

It was really, really hard not to cry the whole time but I made myself stay and cheer and gasp. I cheered so much for Keegan. His spread eagles are unbelievable. And I cheered for beautiful Deniss. And Jason is amazing.

 

but all that just makes me think of how much more amazing Yuzu would have been, and i was 5th row arena seat. I will be second row on Sunday. I’m so sad.

 

Honestly the men were so good i forgot all about the ladies. 

That's a really great seat! I'm glad you had fun watching the wonderful performances.

It's better than some of us, who just spent the day wallowing in our sorrows lol.

I was fine and calm before but I'm crying a mess right now. Every time I saw yuzu's picture/video I'm crying... I can't watch NHK17 without thinking about yuzu and then... being sad. I don't know how you guys survived CoC and B****n back then. I need to recover. I hope I can. 

Jason is really walking sunshine.

thank you for your vivid report.

 

To consider all the situation that you have, i cannot find words to confort you enough...

But all i can say is just cherish a part of your life.  Someday you can look back on this experience.  Sorry, I cant express in English.

He is, isn't he? Not the way Yuzu is. Yuzu can be a mischievous little devil in the most adorable way. Jason is just all angel.

Some light-hearted thread about Yuzu, Chiddy, & Javi

 

 

I just woke up and now I see what has happened because the storm knocked out the power...

 

oh dear, so sad for Yuzu. I suspected this would be more serious but knowing for sure is depressing. I may feel sad, but his feelings dwarf anything I might feel. I hope the pain isn't too bad.  Listen to the doctors, go for therapy and rest for the battle to come.... 

 

Sad for those who travelled to see him. 

 

My, my, TCC. One week Brian gets emergency surgery, the next week Javi seems to get ill or something to have a terrible COC, and the week after Yuzu suffers ligament damage at NHK... so far  a GP season to forget .....things happen in 3s so let all 3 get better and then take on the world even stronger for having suffered.

What I have is actually similar to panicking attacks. My body can’t pump enough blood to my brain so it panics and releases loads of adrenaline. I was misdiagnosed with anxiety most of my life so I can sympathise.

Sorry, it is always shared...

"his team considered the plan to avoid 4loop and 4ltz taking off with right leg, but he right leg had pain just by putting his weight on it, and he had tears for not being able to skate.

 

But his coach Brian said to him "Our goal is achieve the 2nd Olympic gold medal.  You have to get positive." and he strongly replied "Yes.""
