Living alone on the streets as a stray animal is a lonely, heartbreaking life. Tina was found living alone on the streets of Athens, Greece. She was starving and had suffered some injuries. Tina was desperate to find someone – anyone who was willing to help her.
Finally, one day, her body and spirit could go no further. She managed to get inside an office, and she laid down.
