Description: She'd gone to school expecting to come home again but instead she'd been picked up, told her mother was in hospital and that tonight she would have to sleep somewhere else. I was used to dealing with kids from bad situations, but it seemed inexplicable that this sweet little girl didn't have a single other place she could go.
