Heartbreaking story.

Ohhh... that just rips my heart out...
especially knowing she lives atop a brothel
and is soon to be an orphan. And our world
today makes adoption so difficult and expensive! I understand to a
degree, but it's still one of my pet peeves.

No doubt it is a very severe situation. We as
individual people can face and feel for
individuals in similar situations as that
cute girl but we also know that the solution
is not on the individual level but on the
global level where we as persons are
powerless. you are doing a wonderful work but
it has to come out across flickr to attract
attention of a broader audience /public
Sorry if it sound a bit pessimistic

Really don't know how you cope with this
relentless misery Sam. You certainly have the
most extraordinary strength of spirit and
more than that you do something incredibly
useful and powerful with it. Kudos to you my
friend and best wishes.

I'm with Jen.. this is nothing short of a
perfect documentary that as LJ says, need to
be told..
One would think that the story you relate is
out of a movie, but it is "real
life"... One we can be fortunate to not
have to live but yet should feel obligated to
change..

Sammi girl, here you are. In the middle of
it all. Showing pictures probably doesn't
really let us in on the realities she faces.
The fact that men are doing their 'business'
downstairs, really only makes her life in
more danger if they harm her. The tears are
forming. And I cannot type well...excuse any
errors....give her a hug. From me.
