Fortunately, Unfortunately

Fortunately, Unfortunately
(Describing November 18 & November 19)

Fortunately, Gerald can walk quite well
Unfortunately, his ankle is still swollen
Fortunately, we got our washing machine door back yesterday after six months of being broken and not being able to find the missing part
Unfortunately, the man who brought it said the roof & upper floor of his father’s house was burned this weekend
Fortunately, the fire department came
Unfortunately, they had no water in their truck
Fortunately, they were able to fill it up using water from the Ifrane lake
Unfortunately, Katrina was hurt yesterday by a 12-year-old boy who was flying off the monkey bars. One of his feet landed on her face and other landed on her chest. She was winded, lethargic, had blood coming from her nose, had a headache, a bruise and dizziness.
Fortunately, she slept well and felt better in the morning

Unfortunately, we found out at the doctor’s appointment that Gerald’s ankle actually had a fracture vs. a torn ligament. He should have been in a cast and on crutches for six weeks
Fortunately, the lack of correct diagnosis has not hurt his ankle and he will start physical therapy next week
Unfortunately, we had to drive through the wild streets of Meknes with insane taxi drivers
Fortunately, our mechanic had completely fixed our car – new fuel pump, water pump, belts, and various other parts that I have no idea how to translate
Unfortunately, we found out he shouldn’t have worked on it at all because he had injured his leg
Fortunately, it was Gerald’s birthday AND there is a brand-new Pizza Hut in Meknes -combining the two made for a lovely lunch
Unfortunately, the pediatrician said the inside of Katrina’s nose looked so traumatized she was concerned that Katrina had internal bleeding and ordered a CAT scan
Fortunately cat scans in Morocco are cheap
Unfortunately, we watched a mouse run back and forth across the floor of the hospital (Gerald said that the cat we saw in the other hospital should be put together with this mouse)
Fortunately, Katrina’s CAT scan came out fine
Unfortunately, it was dark and we were exhausted by the time we had to head back up to Ifrane
Fortunately, we arrived safely and are thankful to God that all is well
