            Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Appanoose County, Lucy J. Gamon, Judge.  AFFIRMED.  Considered by Schumacher, P.J., and Chicchelly and Buller,  JJ.  Opinion by Chicchelly, J.  (8 pages)

            Teresa Liford appeals the district court’s ruling that she is not entitled to Second Injury Fund benefits.  OPINION HOLDS: Substantial evidence necessary supports the finding that Liford did not have a separate and distinct second injury.  Because Liford is not entitled to benefits from the Second Injury Fund, we affirm the district court’s ruling.
