Helping The Homeless

jackets-pole-homeless-today-151202_698e2d554384d5011b27b74bbcb8ea8e.today-inline-large
Bio SoCal helps people in great times of despair. When we clean out hoarded homes we find a significant amount of new clothing and with the permission of the client we collect and donate. Last night I decided to take all of the warm winter jackets and drive around town to look for some homeless people that might need them. I saw a homeless man and parked my truck, walked up to him and asked him if he could use a warm jacket. He said yes with a look ofsincere relief because he was cold. I gave him the jacket and he said thank you and I drove away. As I drove away I decided to go back and ask him if he needed anymore clothing. He said he needed a lot because another homeless guy who skipped town stole all of his things. He looked “safe” and relatively well kept so I said get your stuff and hop into my truck and let’s go to my warehouse and you can pick out some stuff. The guy was pretty surprised that someone was treating him not as a homeless person but rather as a person who needed help.

On the way to my warehouse I asked him where he was staying and he told me where he was “camping” behind a store close to our main office. I was curious so I asked him where he was from and to my shock he replied, “right here in, born and raised”. My heart sunk because I knew that we had to know some people in common based on his age and mine and sure enough it was the case. We arrived at my warehouse and he looked through the clothing and he picked out a bunch of stuff that he could use to help him get back on his feet (pants, shirts, sox, gloves, duffle bag, etc). When we were done he was so appreciative and I took him back to his “camping” place behind the store where he unloaded the bag we put together for him. I could not get over that here was a guy that grew up in the same town and fell upon circumstances that led him to be homeless.

It’s cold outside, especially at night. So I put a call out to everyone, go into your closet and take that old warm winter jacket you never wear and get in your car and find someone to give it to-they need it more than you do and you could use a little less clutter. I promise it will make you feel so wonderful to help someone with something so simple.

If you do it please come back to this post and share your experience in hopes that it will spread and together we can help those that need it.

“Too Much Stuff” from The New Yorker Magazine

May 14, 2015 By Alan Cohen

New Yorker 12:14

If you are dealing with a hoarding situation, a thorough examination of the condition and state of hoarding was written by Joan Acocella in a December, 2014 issue of The New Yorker Magazine. The author opens the article with her very personal experience of her aging mother’s onset of hoarding coinciding with her dementia. It’s often very difficult for family members to know what to do to help, and because hoarders tend to isolate themselves, they often get involved after a situation has reached a serious level of concern.

I would get up on a stepladder, with a trash bag, and dump the containers in, one by one. She would stand below me, in her blue robe, her eyes sparkling with—what? Grief? Anger? Eagerness to fill the newly vacated space?

The author explores two very famous hoarding cases; the first is from the early 1900’s involving Homer and Langley Collyer, two wealthy brothers who holed up for decades in their Harlem-area family mansion. The police entered the residence in 1947 after neighbors complained of an odor. Homer was found dead in a chair. It took over a week to find Langley, who apparently had died when one of the tunnels they used to navigate through the debris, had collapsed.Collyer Brothers Brownstone 1947

The medical examiner estimated that Langley had been dead for about a month. Homer seems to have died of starvation, waiting for his dinner.

The second famous case involved Big Edie and Little Edie Bouvier Beale, a mother and daughter living in a 28-room mansion in the Hamptons of New York. They became famous first, because Big Edie was the aunt of Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy, and secondly when a documentary was made about them called, “Grey Gardens.” Their lifestyle was definitely flamboyant and colorful, but also sad and isolating.Little Edie Beale

These two rather extreme cases demonstrate the breadth of conditions and symptoms of hoarding. More so, how the medical community has come to understand hoarding has continued to evolve since it was first identified as a condition. And Ms. Acocella notes some startling statistics; that with the aging of the large Baby Boomer population, the prevalence of hoarding cases is expected to increase. Hoarding is common with dementia, although it is a condition that can be present at younger ages and without dementia.
