A Homeless Son
AC from Northeast Ohio
“I was outside on a
sunny day listening to an Indians baseball game on
the radio. I was ten years old. Then it all came
down on us.” This man (name withheld for privacy)
can still remember the shock and confusion he felt
as a 10-year-old boy when he and his family were
evicted from their home. His dad had a good job in
the hospitality industry. He made plenty of money
but was addicted to state sponsored lottery games.
He gambled away everything the family had and lost
both his job and his home. His wife and children
were thrown out onto the street – more than once.
