Reminds me of an interesting homeless man I met in Cork a few years back, he was highly entertaining. He told me about a relationship he had with a homeless woman and how she dyed the colours of the rainbow in his hair while he was passed out. I agree, it’s very depressing.

Mentally ill, strung-out on drugs, various health problems, often turned away from over crowded shelters.

Harrowing..beyond words. This is the sad truth about most of the homeless.
