Troy, New York, Dena’s nine-year-old daughter Denny was diagnosed with ADHD last year by the school appointed child psychologist.

Denny has a hard time sitting still in class and is slow to process information. She is often the brunt of teasing and rough play by her sisters and brother.


Here, Denny is enjoying the spoils of her neighbors’ possessions that were put in the street after they were evicted for failure to pay rent.
