DENVER, CO. - JUNE 16: Edna Abraham Gezahegne is scolded by a man she found slumped over his wheelchair on the 16th Street Mall in Denver, CO, June 16, 2014. The man was angry at Edna for calling 911. She was sure the man needed medical attention and suspected he might have some mental health issues, "first he said he didn't want to go, then he kept dozing off." Edna was happy when the paramedics loaded the man into the ambulance, "they took him. Praise the Lord. I did the right thing. I only can do what I can do." She said, "he can benefit from medical help right now We helped at least one person, one Citizen." Besides being a peer specialist at the Arapahoe-Douglas Mental Health Network, Edna does her own outreach work on her free time for very personal reasons. She has been hospitalized 15 times herself and diagnosed with bipolar disorder, depression, schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder on different occasions. "I want to give back to people who are homeless and helpless," she said. (Photo By Craig F. Walker / The Denver Post)
