The True Story of Streetwise, Overcoming homelessness and beating the odds is the tale of a twenty year old boy who lived on the streets of Washington and Oregon for four years. Though wise to ways of the streets, he was incapable of carrying on a sustainable life style. At one time he considered going to jail in to get roof over his head and three meals a day.
Several years ago my partner and I became involved with his saga as he passed before our car. After observing his unsteady walk we determined that he was ill and invited the boy home to nurse back to health. Once healed, we were unable to turn him out during the cold, rainy month of November. Instead we embarked on a four year difficult adventure. Yet, through determination and perseverance Streetwise eventually evolved. In reading this book you will share our heartaches and excitement as he transformed into a contributing member of society. We now consider Streetwise our hero, for he gives as much as he ever received.
