About

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.

Book Preview:#1 At the crackhouse, the patients often complain about the medication their psychiatrists give them, as it is not enough to alleviate their withdrawal symptoms, but too much for them to handle.

#2 The author works in a building that used to be a hotel, now called the Portland Hotel. The building features wide staircases, wooden balustrades, and musty landings. It replaced an older hotel with character and history, but with much less space and comfort.

#3 The author is the doctor for a nonprofit organization in Portland, Oregon, that provides housing for people who are homeless or have mental illnesses.

#4 The Portland Hotel Society was created in 1991 to provide housing and services to those who would otherwise be homeless.
