‘What A Gal’ part 1 – Length 05:34

Elizabeth Gal had a fairly normal suburban start to life. Then by the age of 16 she was addicted to heroin and living off the streets of Kings Cross. Her journey was to become anything but ‘normal’.

We think sometimes that poverty is only being hungry, naked and homeless. The poverty of being unwanted, unloved and uncared for is the greatest poverty’

–  Mother Theresa
