I’m praying for Dawn & Mike, please keep us informed as to how they are doing. My husband and I were homeless for 7 months in 2011. We live in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and were homeless from May 2011 to November 2011. We were lucky enough that our church helped us get the money we needed to get an apartment. If I could afford to give to Dawn & Mike’s go-fund-me page I would, but it’s hard when you live on Social Security and Social Security Disability. Please if you could give a message to Dawn, please let her know that there are people who are praying for her and her husband to find housing with a yard for their four-legged children. My husband and I are continuing to pray for Dawn & Mike. Our church will also be praying for them. Thank you for the work you’re doing, keep spreading the word about the homeless issue in America!!

I have been homeless 3 1/2 years because I won't betray my hospice animals. I had 2 long term jobs. Both went out of business within 2 months of each other. My roommate couple stopped paying rent and wouldn't leave. I was able too.i keep the apt. for a year before being evicted, in the middle of an ice storm. I ended up in some woods in a park, in a dangerous ghetto city. Social services refused to help. I am 57, don't drink,dont do drugs, no criminal record. It's almost impossible to hold a regular job when homeless. Most of you have no clue. It takes hours every day to gather water, clean without running water, e.t.c, - have everything done befor the sun goes down. Not having an address makes things extra hard.Just pray for all of us normal people who are homeless. Most programs I believe,are pocketing most of the money and not helping people.

@@susanmercurio1060 and imagine. They said the reason my paperwork was taking so long was because I had never asked for help before.They kept saying they would help. The entire time I was in court filing 3 day extensions. Only 3 allowed. I was not given those months extensions.why? Because I wasn't on assistance. Every time I went to court, they added $1000.So the original $2000 I owned became $6000,iwas only asking for the 2 months rent I owed, while I looked for another job. I offered to pay it back in installments.I finally got a 3 day sheriff notice that the padlock was coming . That's when I set up a tent, grabbed the animals and went back to get some clothes,pet food and supplies. Meanwhile, like 75%+ in this city is on assistance,most don't need it. And just because they are on assistance,you would not believe how many things they get automatically,free. Even vouchers for expensive shops to buy kitchen appliances, linens, e.t.c- all I asked for was a loan to not lose my home. Just keep me in your prayers. I will keep you in mine.

Her husband was working and now is unable to work due to serious disabilities and he ends up homeless with only his wife taking care of him. Disability benefits denied, housing denied still. People must change that, it is not just the irrationality and perversion of the system that is obvious. People without a LOT of savings and assets, which are the majority of people, can end up sooner or later like that, if circumstances arise. So most people should react for just reasons of self protection, instead of preoccupied with celebrities and memes (i am saying that for me also). It is a miracle of human strength, that in a such crooked system, with no integrity, many of its victims have so much decency and such values., like this woman and many others.

Hello everyone and again thank you all for taking the time to watch my interview. I have read many to most of these comments and respect that you are entitled to your opinions. If I were on the outside looking in, I don't know what I would think. Take away the problems and uphill battle my husband and I are facing and look at the rest of the interview. This society needs to pull together. If we all see that powers at be aren't taking care of their own, why would it be so hard for any of you to take a second and ask anyone in this position if they need anything? A monetary handout isn't all we need out here. We need blankets, food, hygiene items, propane or butane to cook, ice to keep things cold(such as insulin). Things of that nature will help tremendously. But more than the material aspect of it, the thought of a complete stranger taking time to let someone know that yes, they do care. That alone does so much. As for my children, I have asked this before but please don't assume they are not doing what they should. As a matter of fact they are living the life I had always wished for them. I want them to enjoy it and live their way. I will not burden them with any of this. Yes we are homeless but I would never put them in any position to feel they never lived their lives because they had to take care of me so early on. They deserve more than that. I won't be the reason they ever come close to being where I am. Sure as hell not at my expense. To all who have selflessly donated, thank you will never be enough. It is my wish that you all live prosperous and with many blessings. You are what this world needs more of. Please keep praying not just for us but anyone who suffers on these streets and even beyond. Prayers work. Prayers are powerful. More powerful than any of us can even comprehend. Again, thank you all.

Dear Dawn, I allow myself to suggest you to turn to your children for help. You want to let them live their live, that's nobel, but.......how can they do that, knowing that your homeless? Give them the chance to help you. In a ideal world, no child would want to live "normal" by knowing their parents ( or siblings) are sick and homeless. I would rather go live in a tent and take my parents and siblings in my house. I pray to the great God for a solution for you. 🤗

It's good to hear from you... and it's good to hear that you two are still managing. If possible... ask about the gov. giving you a vehicle to sleep in and to use for transporation... A vehicle is much more doable than them making buildings... They are a lot cheaper. No it's not ideal... but it's a lot better than a tent. - Ideally, the Gov should be able to customize it so that you guys can sleep in it comfortably... and still use it for transportation in the day.

@Stay EZ My Friends Hold on a second. I never ever said charity is NOT good enough. What I say is charity never solved a social crisis. We have to fix why people need food and housing. Plus, it's OK to feed someone in the park as long as you're doing something to get them out of the park. If it's safe and the person wants it, we will provide a fundraising link. The point of this work is to get the viewer to take tangible actions in their own communities to help end homelessness. I am probably the only nonprofit leader that tells people to give locally to help end homelessness instead of giving to us. I have worked without income or healthcare for eleven years. I spend every waking moment working to help homeless people. Every day, I help people with what may be considered charity, but I also work to help end homelessness. The public has been trained that a sandwich ends homelessness, but that's not the truth. We must get people into housing, and food will not do that. No one should go hungry, so if a person needs food, we must feed them, but just feeding alone does NOTHING to end their suffering.

If you have adult children, you are their responsibility. That's how human society has always worked. We care for our young, and they care for us when we're old or sick.

Well she has I believe she said four animals. Four animals would be a lot in a one bedroom apartment. She and her husband has chosen homelessness so they can be with their animals. Homeless outreach has to respect their choice of staying outside with their 4 animals. I'm concerned that the husband is swollen as a result of diabetes. I'm dealing with minor swelling due to pre-diabetes and it is no fun at all. It is bloody painful and I live in an expensive house with enough of everything I need to survive. If I had to live on the streets with this pre-diabetes related skin and swelling health issues I'd lose my sanity. I must be a cold hearted bastard because, I'd give up the animals and try for whatever housing I could get. I don't think they are wrong for keeping their animals and forsaking housing as a result. I just don't understand it. I'm autistic so I will do what it takes for me to survive. In my autistic world animals are luxuries not necessities. I have luxuries expensive gaming computers, stereos, speakers, watches and all manner of things I love BUT if I absolutely had to sell or get rid of them to survive I would. Animals are nice to have but, survival is not about what you want to do. Survival is about what you have to do. I love animals. I had a dog Atlas for 15 years. He just died and I love and miss him to this day. I had a cat named Cleopatra she was a man crazy fresh pot hence the name. I adored my Cleo but, if I could not get housing enough to care for them I'd give them up. To me its just the hard ugly logic of survival.

Elderly parents still have to earn that support by being decent and honorable people, not addicts/gamblers/abusive etc. It's far more likely that this couple has alienated their kids, than that they just happen to have bizarrely cold children. Even then, if their children are that cold, it's on them anyway. They should have raised better people.

@@bevcrusher4177 I beg to differ, my mother was abusive in many different ways but I would never want her to suffer. My abuse taught me compassion and made me resiliant, not bitter or heartless. I now have strength and the survival skills to cope with life's hand that was dealt to me... I have compassion and empathy for others. I dont automatically assume the worst even tho Ive seen it and experienced it. And at times Im wrong about people but in the end, no matter how many evil words are spoken, how many assumptions are made, how much money is misused, I still have me. And no one can take that away...

Hunnie you have to rehome your fur babies. I could hardly house myself and two small dogs with a car, 2 full time jobs, and no ill husband. You can find a no kill non profit...you can find them really quality forever homes. Ask yourself what quality do they have now? You are on the top of that list and they can get you housing without the pups. Your husband needs that housing to survive. You can do it and you will all be better off.

Where are the daughters?!?! Letting their parents be homeless - especially with one very ill, that is indefensible. Period. If I only had a 1 room apartment I would bring them in asap!! God Bless them.....

How did they wind up homeless? Ah, he can't work in his trade. So there is no govmt. help for them? Social Security? Why can't they get "disability"? She never expected to be like that, in that situation. Yeah, the society we live in created this. She's trying to be strong, but it's hard and it hurts. I couldn't say she's a "homeless person" to her face. Like she's that. She's just a person that lost her way to keep living in a home, lost it, and has no home to go to, and can't find a way to get out of that situation, and is doing what she can to be able to eat and do what everyone else needs to do. She's not a "homeless person".

The sad part is while I feel your desire to reimagine her and her husband in a heroic light you willfully ignore an unspoken truth! Truth is in the cold of the dangerous night on the streets in LA she and her husband ARE not only homeless but extremely vulnerable. A hopeful re-imagining won't breathe life into a swollen diabetic foot sporting a festering infected ulcer. The exact truth is both she and he ARE HOMELESS PERSONS, DYING ON L.A. STREETS while paid outreach workers gloss over the ugly truth's with water bottles and empty words. She is trying to survive. Her animals who love and protect them unconditionally represent her last shreds of dignity they'd die rather than give them up. In the autistic feral heart such as mine Survival is the most important thing. For herself and her husband the civilized attributes of dignity are more important than survival. For her a life of survival is feral \ uncivilized and I am that indeed proud of it. For her the dogs are their children hence they are civilizing forces in their lives. The dogs keep them linked into networks of caring. When I spent time on the streets, I was into surviving not caring. On the streets long ago my brother and I survived like wild animals. Civilization and dignity were luxuries we could not afford when we were poor and on the streets!

Canis Lupus There is no reimagining and no intent of creating heroes. I am just seeing that "there, but for the grace of God, go I", though I do not believe any god has chosen so that she is in that situation. I am seeing a bit of what she is feeling. It is a disservice to label her. Thus, she is not a "homeless person", she is a person that is destitute and without a home. Not the same as labeling her, with all the other ideas sometimes implied in that label.

@@guillermoa.nerygomez8782 No you are fine. I agree with your more romanticized (Humanized) assessment of her situation. You are part of the Person First movement that hates labels of all kinds. You would see me as a "Person With Autism" or a "Person Experiencing Autism." For me I'm just an autistic dude. Some people need the crutch that person first speaking conventions offer. I don't need that crutch. I'm fine being a disabled person, autistic dude or disabled guy. I feel my individual personality defines me more than any label ever could. I understand why person first politics is important because, it seems most neurologically typical people need reminding the people suffering in this world are people first and their afflictions are just a co-mobidity. It was hard not to see the humanity of that poor woman moving between states of indignation, heart break and tears. The autistic mind is a strange and unique thing.
