Geraldine Gimblet who resides in Lakeland Florida is one very happy person since she played the last scratch off lottery ticket at a gasoline station in Lakeland since she likes to play crossword scratch off games.
Geraldine bought the $10 lottery game on Friday. The sweet part of this story is that her daughter had finished her treatment for breast cancer the day before.
Geraldine bought the winning lottery ticket at the Pipkin Road Beverage Castle in Lakeland.
When Geraldine found out that she won the grand prize of $2 million dollars, she decided to take the lump sum after taxes which is #1.645,000 dollars.
The store will receive a bonus of $2,000 dollars from Florida Lottery officials for selling the winning ticket.
Geraldine spent her life savings on treatments for her daughter being treated for her illness.
I guess Geraldine is a religious person since she must have prayed that her good deeds of taking care of her daughter were repaid.

That would be a good idea since the rule is to only spend money you can afford to lose.
