This is so sad. But it is very inspiring how determined she is to keep going and get back on her feet.

Tear tear. I read this at work last week and it tore my heart. I always knew that the homeless were more than drug users, prostitutes or "crazy" but as we are seeing now they can be regular people that fall on hard times. Maybe we can make some meaningfull changes to help out.

I know, right. I was talking to a woman from my son's school who was telling me that in NJ where her relatives live, people come and go through the garbage looking for food at night. Now that's real sad.
