― The money was gone. I couldn‘t pay my rent, and I was still alive. So I
moved back home to Conway.‖ Sharon intended to move in with her
sister, but found that situation unlivable. After three months of living in
Conway, Sharon had nowhere to go. She had one brother in Little Rock,

my back and one pair of shorts in my bag.‖

stayed in contact with her with phone calls and letters while she
lived at Our House.
