Physician here. As soon as he said she had Strep as a child, I knew she had glomerulonephritis leading to kidney failure, which in turn made her breath smell like ammonia. Poor Jean😢. This is why I get so frustrated when some patients say they want to treat infections like strep “naturally.” Any other time, there are people who want antibiotics for a virus, which are useless, then some who refuse them for Strep that causes kidney failure or heart disease. You can’t win😱

Jean Harlow was a cousin. She used to go up to Sebastopol California to visit my great grandparents on their farm. She generally came alone but not always. She liked the remote nature of their farm and the country life so she visited as often as possible. She was not flamboyant or crude, she was polite and rather quiet. She enjoyed a good meal and seemed to be very helpful in the kitchen. She was good company. She played with my father and uncle when they were present when she was visiting. She may have been a flamboyant Hollywood personality but with family, she was very normal. I’m just say’n people are not always what you think.

But let me tell you going through her photos and the stories that were passed down to me from my father and my grandmother who was her niece, it's amazing even the veils and secrecy and Steve's relationships and storylines of actors and actresses personalized was going on even then so imagine how bad it is now it's a thousand times worse than you could ever imagine I mean forced relationships to be done in public so there could be photo-ops it's unreal Elizabeth Russell started out as a model and there's a reason why she didn't become as big as Jane. She wanted nothing to do with Hollywood after a while and it was because of her attitude against the awful things he saw that in some cases she got a reputation for being stuck up when in reality she was putting her nose up at the bad people but when you do that they have to make a spin story to cover up their Web of Lies and thus she became a b**** in Hollywood but let me tell you I was told that was very far from the truth

Eight days is about the length of time it takes to die without treatment. I suffer from Glomerulonephritis thought to have been caused by strep throat, and it is the type of disease that completely takes over and ruins your life. At least these days we have dialysis machines to try to keep us alive but even so, the side effects and the pain are indescribable as even after five hours at a time on the machine for four days a week, the dialysis doesn’t always work. And it’s really not nice to see anyone posting a video on youtube with such a title whether it is done for shock effect or not to get more patrons.

I had no idea that ammonia on the breath was a symptom. that's fascinating, and also disgusting. I also suffered kidney damage in 2019 from Rhabdomiolysis. I had had a severe seizure, and jerked so hard that I dislocated my shoulder, and fell from my bed to the floor. my bed is pretty high off the ground, so it was a hard fall to recover from. I didn't have to have dialysis like my dad did. but my creatinine levels kept going up, so they had to triple my fluid intake. very very scary.

[@elburko9453]

True, she did start off as a not very good actress, she was a mid teen afterall, but you can track her growth and poise and professionalism almost picture by picture. By the time of "Dinner at Eight" I think one could well argue that she had become one of the great comedic actresses of her time and perhaps all time. She was hilarious and sassy and naughty and loveable and forgivable all at the same time, and her rapport and timing with other actors, especially male, became a thing of exuberant beauty. They felt the magic too, for she was many a leading man's favorite leading lady. Somewhere between Marilyn and Goldie Hawn maybe? Or just Harlowe? Anyway, I sure grew to love her as I became aware of her filmography and enjoy her comedic work especially. A shame she didn't live longer. Fair to say her crazy stage mom killed her as much as made her.

People definitely didn’t want realism in the 30’s. That’s why the majority of films deal with the wealthy, sophisticated, and/or connected. They wanted to be immersed in a world were money wasn’t an issue & therefore never brought up. While I never thought about it before, though I love Harlow’s films, there aren’t any that are straight up classics. Probably her best and most remembered films are Dinner at Eight and Libeled Lady. Bombshell is my favorite. So many of her films haven’t aged well.

A lot of people don't know that Marilyn actually had plastic surgery. The film exec's said she had a chin that resembled a potato. I know for certain she had a chin implant. I cannot recall the other procedures. Even still, because it was brought up, I think Marilyn was a hands down winner if there were a competition of beauty and body. Jean just isn't pretty imo. Her hair, which was very unique at the time (and likely added to her poor health) was a huge box office draw. Her eyebrows are non existent but drawn on, her lips are so tiny and such a blah face, I see nothing special about her face at all. Her body does not seem voluptuous at all as I see it. This being said, I never watched her on the screen. Perhaps she translates better when acting.
