Michelle’s Breakdown Follows Shortly After


 Michelle spent time with her parents as she started drinking and taking pills. One of these times, she overdosed and was rushed to a hospital. Even then, Michelle said her senses were dulled and she felt nothing – until one faithful doctor visit.

“You have one-in-three chances to survive,” the doctor said, explaining that Michelle had done near-irreparable damage to her liver. It was at this moment she suddenly came back to life and decided to live.

Her husband had started coming back and bringing her daughter to visit. Slowly, he was going to forgive her. Does the story end here? It almost does. Michelle is back with her family, but they have a big debt to cover. In three years, she managed to gamble away £550,000 and, in her own words, the family would never be able to afford a home.

While this addiction story can serve as a reminder for us all about the irreparable harm we can do to ourselves and others through our obsession with gambling, it’s also a good story of redemption.

You may think that such lucky occasions don’t just happen to anybody. Some people who engage in gambling claim that it’s all about karma, some are sure that you need to find the right slot machine and others believe in lucky numbers or omens.  No matter what your beliefs are, we all know that big wins at casinos are scarce. How about two huge wins in a lifetime? Okay, we won`t intrigue you anymore. Because having two wins in a lifetime is the story of a 67-year-old American lady who never thought she would become a millionaire. Does anyone of us think of this though? Unfortunately, the name of this woman remains unknown, but it doesn’t matter. What matters is her story. It was the year of 1996 when she just walked in a casino, decided to bet about a hundred bucks, and ended up winning $680,000.  A couple of months later, the same adventurous lucky lady c
