Saturday, October 25, 2019:

Love, Alaska


Storyline via UPtv: When a young doctor inherits her uncle’s practice in her small home-town of Love, Alaska, she returns there to find something things are the same; like the town’s annual Love festival, and some things have changed; like her childhood friend Finn who has grown into a handsome, if not troubled, man.

See the premiere of Love, Alaska
Saturday, October 25, 2019
at 7pm/6c. on UPtv

Encore Airing: Saturday Oct. 26 at 10:57pm/9:57c.

*Please Note: This in not a Christmas movie. The main character, Finn, struggles with PTSD after returning home from his military service. Due to this sensitive storyline, this film may not be suitable for young children.

I hope this movie will be helpful to those who have served our country and also deal with Post Traumatic Stress. I personally don't consider it to be a disorder. It is that person's feelings, and I pray with love and help from family, friends, or a furry friend, they will overcome it.

God bless our Military. As a daughter of a veteran, I am grateful for those who have served and those who serve today. Please know, although I do not know your name, YOU are always in my prayers.

Blessings to you all, Net
