Martin: "I love that hat."
Larry: "That's my son's"
M: "Pretty stylin'. Where are you from?"
L: "Cincinnati, Ohio."
M: "My wife is from Cleveland."
L: "Oh, just up the road, that's nice."
M: "Yeah. I don't mind Ohio. Everybody makes fun of it, but it's really pretty in the summer."
L: "That's right."
M: "You've been on the street for a while?"
L: "About three months."
M: "What happened?"
L: "Well, what happened...my story is I was working as a nurse and what happened was I was afflicted with cancer. And it gets up to my kidneys. So at that point I had to drop everything I was doing. I'm on a machine Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. 5am in the morning for three hours, 'till 8:30am. And I get a needle in the stomach twice a week."
M: "You don't need an operation or chemotherapy?"
L: "This is chemo. It's a needle form. But this type of cancer is not extensive. You know what I mean?"
M: "It won't spread?"
L: "Yeah. They hit it before it got worse."
M: "And then the chemo. Does it make you sick?"
L: "No, no. I'm up and ready to go. I drink a cup of coffee and call it a day."
M: "You're living and feeling good?"
L: "Always. That's the key, right?"
M: "How long did you work as a nurse?"
L: "For twenty-one years."
M: "Did you like it?"
L: "I loved it. I liked the people, doing what I can, sharing, giving the little love that I can give, encouraging people to feel better and go forth, you can do better in your life and make it better, you know what I mean? Just live." For more portraits and stories, follow me: @martinschoeller
