Apparently 18 year old Betty was truly destitute.

But with the help of generous folks on the internet looks like she has made a nice recovery:

TikTok link to video.

Hopefully it works out for Betty.

That’s terrible. We don’t do near enough in this country to deal with mental health.

Unfortunately politicians on both sides are focused on everything except what’s important to make a difference.

18 years old and has definitely already been through more shite than I ever will and she still has many years to go. We take so much for granted. I need to show my kids this video. Especially my daughter who rolled her eyes at me this morning because I told her she had too much makeup on. We don't realize how good we have it.

Oh, man that hurts me. 18. She needs to be on a ranch somewhere taking care of animals and getting fresh air away from the streets.

It's a great story and hope she maintains but the odds are against her unless she maintains the support/help.

Hope she makes it. Reminded me of Soft White Underbelly compilation of all the people that he's interviewed and are now deceased. It's like 65 or so.

A lot of people seemed to be moved by Lin and her interview / story. Video is cued to her part. I think some time later they found her in a tent, passed away.


Another girl, 16, says "I'm probably gonna be dead" when he asks her, "Where do you see your life going?"

When I see videos like this, I can't help but wonder what determines who makes it and who does not, and the seemingly endless capacity of humans to hurt other humans.
