I was waiting for the bus when some guy asked me for money. I didn't have any. I them realized that ma aube he needed help with his homeless situation. I asked where he was called can camped. He said 10 blocks down. I referred him to Jeffco Action Center but he said he couldn't walk that far. I continued offering places like The Rescue Mission but he was trying to get back to Aurora. His sister wouldn't accept him in the drunken condition. I then suggested a few free rehabs to get him sober but of course, he said he could get sober on his own. I finally realuzed that he has the desire to change but wasn't willing to do what wad needed. Some intelligent homeless alcoholics might turn themselves around. I hope for his sake he will think about what we talked about and change hus life.
I understand just how you feel in this instance. You cant help someone that don't want to be helped.
