Larisa, the name

THE LAUGH

Nancy was 6 years old, she came from a very humble home, many children and everything was lacking. She was hospitalized for malnutrition, she was always sad and wasn't improving with treatment.

A nurse grew fond of her and set out to make her laugh, she'd show up with different masks, with puppets that talked to her and told her jokes. One day she showed up covered with a sheet playing ghost, and at last Nancy managed to burst out laughing.

From that day on she began to get better, to laugh, to eat better, and the nurse came to the conclusion that laughter is the best medicine. That's why she always tries to make her patients laugh.

THE NAME

Lina was a very pretty little girl, her father's favorite, and every time he told her a story, she would exclaim: super good, and her father, happy, would say: I deserve a five.

Her older siblings started calling her super good and that made her furious. Angry, she started giving everyone nicknames: one was Squirt, another was Twerp, her little sister was Scaredy-pants, and that's how she got back at all of them. When they complained to their parents, she said: you have to learn to respect the name your parents chose.
