building in the Tbilisi district of Lilo can hardly even be called a home. But
for the Mchedlishvili family this dilapidated barrack, which can fall down as a
card house at any moment, has been their weak protection from the bad weather
for more than 18 years.
Once Lali Mchedlishvili and his
teenage son were placed in a barrack on the outskirts of Tbilisi as a temporary
measure, but it turned out that there was nothing more permanent. Ioseb
Mchedlishvili grew up here, got married and now lives with his wife, three
children and mother in the barrack.
– Lali, how do you live here?
– Words are not enough to describe the
conditions in which we live. There are no toilets in the barracks, only
outside. There is neither shower, nor a bathtub – we wash in basins taking
water from stand-pipes. The house is somehow heated with a wooden stove. But
there are so many cracks that the heat does not stay inside for long. And we
cannot move as we have no money to pay for a rented apartment in the city.
It is hard to believe that such a
building can still exist in the capital of Georgia. The six people are living
in terrible conditions: the house is trembling with gusts of wind, the ceiling
is leaking, everything around is collapsing, the floor is falling down, the
walls are unsteady. The Mchedlishvili do not even dream that they will be
resettled in some better conditions: repair of what they already have would be
enough. But they have no means to repair the dilapidated building.
– Lali, did you ask for help, did you
address anyone?
– Wherever we appealed nobody cared;
good people are our last hope. We don’t even have neighbors around to help. One
kind man who lives nearby, gave us some poles, we propped the roof with them. But
this is a temporary measure; we need boards and other building materials.
Everything is falling apart, everything collapses, cracks are everywhere. If
only one room could be made fit to live in.
The family has three children: Gela, 9
years old, George, 7 years old and Nino, 5 years old. Their Grandma worries
about their lives every day. Recently, the family experienced an unpleasant
incident.
– There was strong wind outside, a
board fell from the roof onto Gela, hitting him on the head. God saved the boy!
Thank God, there was no serious injury!
And children… Even in the most
intolerable conditions they remain to be children with their dreams.
– Kids, what do you dream about?
– You might find it funny, but I
want to become a policeman and take care of justice. This is my biggest dream.
I even imagine myself in a police uniform.
– And my sister has not yet decided
what we become. Do you know what we dream about the most? We dream of a
bicycle. One for two is probably enough.
– No, no, – the conversation was
broken by little Nino, – I’ve changed my mind, I want a doll with beautiful
dresses. So that she has two dresses, or rather three… I don’t have them, and
the doll will, and I will call her Nina.
