General Discussion

We have met IRL, and you are a great person.

Secondly, when you feel able to, I would 00% contact Marriott about this -- they actually have a lot of locations near major medical centers, and often take in Ronald McDonald house and similar overflows. I don't work for them, but know via my job they pride themselves in assisting folks like you.

on edit: and yes, ask. A situation a couple years ago shows this: there was an elderly lady sitting cowering under the overhang outside Safeway. It was cold, rainy, she had two suitcases. Dressed very nicely with a nice haircut, so not the usual unhoused we see there. I always stop when I see older women -- Sacramento has motels for them and single moms. Long story short: her housing became unstable because of her landlord's death, she was retired, and had no local family or close friends anymore. She let me call the emergency shelter number, although she started crying and said she was embarrassed and didn't want me to. Within 15 minutes, a social worker and medic came and took her away -- they told em she would ahve a safe room to herself, food,e tc., and they would make sure she had a good place to land.

So, always ask. People you think seem together or middle class need help. Do not be embarrassed. The above story isn't about me, it's about just stopping and aksing.
