More detail may leak about Aliona’s injury in the coming days; it did not take long before we discovered more about Daria’s hip but we know very little about Sasha’s foot injury.. if Aliona does not put on skates right away, I will wager she gets into the saddle just as soon as she can hold the reins 🥰💙
I choked on my coffee when you asked what country - the good old USA! But am in a part of Connecticut called “the quiet corner” and it is a bit of a drive to a hospital tho Urgent Care is 15 minutes away, the staff quality can be a crap shoot.
Take care of yourself in your next run!!
I hope we get an update soon and I hope Aliona can stay fairly fit while while being unable to seriously skate for more than a month.

I wondered if you were talking about the good old US of A. But your name seemed more of a European name so I wasn't sure. ;) We have to remember doctors are practicing and we have to always ask questions. Athletes need to do the same thing. I hope alley only gets all the facts so she can decide if she needs surgery or not. But if she's going to continue as a figure skater and she is the surgery would make her wrist or hands stronger and be able to better handle falls in the future.
 
But it does make me wonder... We really know very little about what caused Aliona's injury, and she herself said she couldn't/wouldn't comment on it. I know most people assume that she got injured in training, but it's entirely possible that she got injured elsewhere -- like if she had gone horse riding on her day off and fell...

In fact, since it's our hooligan, I wouldn't be surprised if it turned out that Aliona had been doing something silly like jumping on a bed, or dancing on a table, and accidentally fell off. :shrug::palmf:😝
There is a rumor (from one infamous journalist, so a grain of salt needed) that Anna injured her toe while filming a tiktok video for their Tutberhouse account. After that Eteri „expressed her opinion“ on tiktok videos, so they stopped filming for that account entirely.

If that’s true, perhaps tiktok is not to blame. I would assume it was from an unlucky fall on practice, but it also can be something ridiculous: if I recall correctly, Kolyada fell on wet stairs and broke his arm at some point.

In fact we have no particular about the type of fracture etc. Hopefully it's a hairline just needing some rest (and moderate exercise). Plus I'm not a traumatologist. I hope she'll tell us more, maybe not on the circumstances of the accident if she doesn't wish, but on its extent and/or prognosis.
 
At first I was glad to read about 4 years, but now that I think about it, why are they so convinced that she will continue another 4 years? Unless she has a contract when she came back to ET and by obligation she must. Currently she cannot even say anything about her fracture.
The fan group likely has a personal contact with Aliona. The photo was not posted by her, so she probably sent it to them herself. I would assume her intention to continue was also expressed along with the photo.
Making a contract requiring someone to skate for 4 years sounds absurd to me. No such contract probably can be made, the clause in itself sounds absurd.
 
Is there a translation? I can't copy her word to paste it on an automatic translator.

Copied and pasted into deepL it gives :

I want to say a huge thank you to my fans who always support me, believe in me and make me happy @kostornaiateam ; all those who write me messages and comments with good wishes. 😘Thank you for believing in me. It makes me very happy to receive such good energy from you. I will try very hard to please you in the future, as I am staying in figure skating for another four years.
I see all the negative comments as well. I thank people for them as well. In this way you make me stronger. You can say whatever you want, but I know I can do anything! ✊✊🏻
Love, your Alyona Kostornaya. ❤️
 
Copied and pasted into deepL it gives :
It's so sad to read she got negative comments. I don't suppose she calls negative comments those merely implying her Oly team chances were now very slim? And she's a fighter, who could doubt it?! :love: Maybe it's about TAT's usual crap (I prefer not to write it here, anyway her comments have become so insignificant).
I have started to wonder if she wouldn't consider an alternative end of season if she can't make up the teams even for Worlds. With smaller competitions. But then she would maybe lack a coach to go with her.

Judging from most recent pictures she seems stress free relaxed and that is a good sign😇. I will follow the news to come closely and with great interest 💙
My maternal grandmother was Baltics, Polish/Russian and Jewish and Dad’s family is Scots/Irish with a bit of Danish/Swedish in there and a smidge of African.. so yes, a mix😁

You are a european-american!

Yes let's see what happens with some medical news on aliona soon. Or it may be a waiting game. So sorry for her.
 
Aliona has a lot of free time now that she’s on her sick leave, so she decided to film her first YouTube video.
Since she can’t really use her right hand, the video is a makeup challenge of doing her makeup with her left hand in 12min.
Says she broke her wrist when she fell on an axel attempt.




P.S. tbh, I think she either just didn’t want to talk to that particular journalist about her injury, so said that so he would leave her alone; or Eteri told them not to talk to yellow page journalists, who might twist their words in media.
The nerve of that journalist to make all journalists victims to make Aliona to talk…. :mad:

I'm happy that Aliona confirmed that she wants to skate for another 4 years, and I'm so glad she has such a supportive fan group like Kostornaia Team -- they really organized a lot of presents for her so quickly!! :cheer2:

I also was happy to read that Aliona uses negative comments to motivate herself further -- that's the right attitude!! 💪
And I almost never comment on Instagram, but I wrote a comment on Aliona's latest post since she said the support of her fans makes her happy. :)

Well, I really came online to post Aliona's video, but nussacker beat me to it! Aliona's YouTube channel is live!! :yahoo: Everyone go and subscribe and write positive comments!
So she did fall on an axel attempt after all...oh well...it did seem like the most likely scenario. I just hope that when she eventually returns to training the 3A that she won't be afraid to try and fail again... :pray:

As for her makeup tutorial -- I didn't understand a word of what she said, but I still enjoyed watching Aliona, and I was super amazed by how well she can do her makeup with her left hand! :jaw: Serious respect!! I could never! :drama:

Guys, hello everyone! You are on my channel, and today we are shooting a beauty challenge. What is it? I broke my right arm, and I can only move two fingers, which is not enough to do at least some makeup. Therefore, I will have my left hand and only 12 minutes of time to do something that looks like makeup. I hope that you will support me with the same response videos, the same challenges. You can set any time, as well as choose any type of makeup. It can be everyday make-up, New Year's, evening make-up - whatever. The main thing is to use only your left hand and meet the established time limit.

Go! So, as soon as there are exactly 12 minutes left on the screen, I'll start to make it fair. Go! What I have: a mirror, eyeshadow, mascara, foundation and whatever you need. Well, first, probably the eyes. Eyes, eyebrows ... Let's try to start with the eyebrows ... So ... Oops! So, already dirty!
(paints eyebrows).

Oh, difficult ... It is really very difficult (applies the shadow to the eyelids with a brush).
So. I'll tell you a little background - how it happened that I was in a cast. Actually, it was during training, I was jumping axel. Unsuccessfully fell, well, you yourself understand what happened next. Nothing unusual, the usual training process, I fell during training. Everything happens, all athletes go through it, everyone has injuries ...

I forgot about the eye drops, so now I'm going to cry. This is how my eyes react to any makeup. So ... One eye is darker than the other, but okay. Everything happens, it's okay - I hope so. I know my screen has gone blank, but the timer still works.

If you like this challenge format, be sure to leave comments, like and write under the video what other challenges you would like to see. I know that there are many different [challenges], but due to my situation, I decided that this is the most relevant and fun option. Indeed, I wonder how I will put on my left hand, if suddenly the same situation happens at some competition.

In total, I have five minutes left. There is not much to do in five minutes, so I’ll probably do the tone [of the face] first, and then I’ll draw the rest. I broke the container with my favorite tonal paint, so now this is how tonal paint looks like for me (
names the brand, I can hear clearly).

(applies tonal paint to face)

My left arm already hurts like hell, because I'm not used to such loads. Now I realized that life is very difficult for left-handers, because almost everything is done for right-handers and it is just that sometimes it is very difficult to perform some actions. For example, it is difficult to do something with scissors, to cut something, to write. Most of the instruments are made for the right hand. This is wildly inconvenient, because ... The same scissors - they just don't cut. No matter how I turn them, they don't cut, and from a person who always tried to do everything on my own, I turned into a person who, whenever possible, does this: “Mom!”. And this is disgusting, because it is also inconvenient for parents to run after me, to help me, and it is inconvenient for me to constantly ask them. It's somehow inconvenient in general.

(tries to open the box) And here comes the difficulties ... (the box finally opens) I don't have to do too much contouring, so I just like that, somehow - with my fingers. Moreover, I'm trying to focus on the eyes. I'm not sure if I can do it ... Now I paint some part of the eyelids ... (continues)
I don’t know anymore, so be it ... (unscrews some cap). That's how wonderful I am now opening all things. On the first day, even so I could not. (paints eyelashes)
Three two one! Well, like that. 12 minutes passed, plus two extra minutes. What can I say - well, overall I tried to do my best. Here is such a make-up I got. I tried very hard to be in time, yes, everything I could, even ... Well, I didn't do everything, but the eyes turned out very [not bad]. In general, I have coped with this challenge, so now it's your turn. I really look forward to your videos, your answers, your thoughts on my video and, of course, some new ideas about what kind of challenge you would like to see in my performance and in my interpretation. Thank you all for watching, I love everyone, see you soon!

Thank you so much for this fast translation! She really is a great make-up artist. Couldn't this training be useful when she becomes a surgeon? Surgeons have a main hand but they need to be deft with the other don't they? Unless robotic assisted surgery go everywhere.

the main thing is that the mobility of the fingers after recovery is fully restored. This is especially important if she really becomes a surgeon. However, the involuntary expansion of the left hand functionality can certainly also be useful in the future.
