Roddy's hair has grown out, and she's starting to look different now...I love these new images of her where she's just happy & playful, because I know how dangerous it is for her to be sleeping on the streets.
Roddy's a homeless child, sleeping on the street who was taken in by Rosa's Auntie Josie earlier this year, and later ran away.
...she re-appeared on the street when I came back to Manila to check on Rosa's Family; literally bolting across the street to give me a hug.
She disappeared again a few minutes after these images were taken, and I did not see her again in April.
...I'll try to find her Family and get her some necessities later this month when I arrive in Manila - I know she very much needs some clothes.
For those not familiar with her story, please see her posts & images from the March 2007 page, here:
