What Appears To Be A Tragedy Is In Actuality a Blessing

Yes, Lisa broke her leg in the snow. She had to have a steel bar placed in her leg to repair the damage. Lisa falls al the time. She fell in Florida. One of her friends said that Lisa seems to have had nothing but bad luck since she moved here. Well, let's look at the facts.
(1) She now has all the records she needs to complete her disability claim.
(2) In Alaska, that claim will now be settled within 3-4 months, compared to 3-4 years in Florida.
(3) She is getting the correct health coverage here.
(4) Her needs are being taken care of. She has a place to live, food to eat, internet and tv. She doesn't have to work 80 hours a week to receive these needs. My disability takes care of it all, and I am glad to share it
(5)Complete strangers brought over a couch for Lisa to sit on because we did not have one. We have only been in Seward for one week. We knew no one. But someone heard of our need and came though.
I know it's rough-she can't go out to the bars. But then again, here comes that blessing in disguise. She has the marker for liver cancer, so it is no great tragedy to give her liver a rest.
Everyone can just stop feeling sorry for Lisa. She wants to live. That's why she came here.
If you want to do something for Lisa, send her some milk thistle. It helps cleanse the liver. Tell Randy to hold the raffle so she can get the rest of the money for her boat.
If you want to send some milk thistle for Lisa, her address is Lisa Rowell, General Delivery, Seward Ak 99664
She is my cousin, I love her. Please stop thinking negative thoughts.
