My friend thinks she has bad karma or something that is causing those around her to have bad things happen. She has been ill for the past year with two tick borne illnesses, and the most recent thing that happened to someone around her is the priest that she has been talking to for help getting through the mental wear-down of the health issues had a heart attack. He is 53. She said she thinks she had bad karma. I don't know. She had done more to help people than anyone I know. She has a good, positive spirit.
