God, help this tender creature find a roof over her head! And God forbid other babies in Georgia hear about such problems from their parents.

Natia (4-year-old): “I want a roof over our heads to protect us from the rain, for me and my sisters!  And also a big toy car, That big! I want dolls for my sisters Nina and Inna. I want a big (shows with her hands), inflatable pool!

This poor little girl, Natia, and her beloved sisters live in a terrible house without a roof! And she has a scary, old doll that looks like a scarecrow. She’s not jealous, but she dreams of having a beautiful inflatable pool and a toy car, like the ones she’s seen in her friends’ houses nearby.

And this Georgian sunshine has a really bad sore throat, and a constant cough keeps her from sleeping well and having sweet dreams! She coughs terribly, and her parents don’t have the money for medical tests!

Kind Natia dreams of her littlest sister, Nina, getting better!  Thank God that little Nina doesn’t realize yet how bad is her situation!  She doesn’t ask for anything because she can’t talk! But she needs urgent throat surgery before it’s too late! And the family doesn’t have the money for that either!

Nina has had a stoma in her throat since birth. When she was born, she couldn’t breathe. The stoma needs to be removed, but how?  The family has no money even for food and medications!

The home of this large family has no roof, and its walls are cold, made of cobblestones. There is no food in the home, no warm clothes, and the only doll is old and scary, like a scarecrow. But the little girl dreams of beautiful things.

No, it’s not the 18th century in Georgia! And this child is not the daughter of a king in a royal cradle! What you see is a 100-year-old crib of a little Georgian citizen! Lord, grant him a happy fate!

In this ‘luxury’ apartment, where they were allowed to stay temporarily by our kind compatriot (thanks to him from the entire team of our Fund and its friends), lives a family whose existence doesn’t concern anyone at all! For the local authorities, they are not people, but outcasts! The law designated them as socially disadvantaged so that all officials of the country would care for them as they do for their own children, and even more so, because they depend on salaries received specifically due to such destitution in Georgia! Mayors and local deputies, according to the law and Constitution, were supposed to become guardians of all socially disadvantaged individuals!  But apparently, they see it as a burden!

“I was lucky,” says the unfortunate Nino. Although at first, honestly, I was in complete despair!  A few months ago, the owners kicked me and my children out onto the street like stray animals! From a rented house! And no one, no one stood up for us! The conditions there were even worse than these. Rain poured on us, and sand crumbled from the walls. And rats and snakes crawled into the house through the cracks. At least no one crawls in now.

– Nino! Are you kidding? Did you pay rent for such a house? How many years have you lived in such conditions?

Nino: I don’t even know. Natia was born there. So, it’s been more than five years. Conditions are bad now too, but at least there’s a roof over our heads. Because it would have been very bad to end up on the street with a sick child.

That’s what a “happy” Georgian mother looks like!  At least a snake or rat won’t bite! But, friends, there’s much more terrible grief in this family! The third child urgently needs help!

REPOST RIGHT AWAY, MY GOOD MAN! HELP YOUR FRIENDS TO GET CLOSER TO THE WORK OF MERCY!

Nino: “What you’ve just seen and what has horrified you – can be called a ‘beautiful life.'” A few months ago, we were thrown out of the rented house, and conditions there were worse than these.

– Do you pay rent for this house too?

Nino: No, we were allowed to stay here temporarily. But when they throw us out of here – I don’t know.

– Do you own anything yourselves?

Nino: My husband had a house, but during a natural disaster many years ago, its roof was blown off.  My mother-in-law wrote many times to have it fixed, but nobody helped. Now, even if we fix the roof, it will be impossible to live there. We’ve applied many times, but it’s as if we’re not heard.

 – Oh, God!  We will contact all authorities on your behalf! This is terrible! You can’t live like this. And your child isn’t entirely healthy, as far as I see.

Nino: You are right – see, she has a stoma in her throat. She’s had it since birth. She couldn’t breathe, and that’s how they saved her. Now it needs to be removed. We’re waiting for funding. I don’t know how much it will cost, but the doctor said the state should cover all expenses. And if not, will you help us then?

– We’re here to help you with everything.  To create conditions for children suitable for a human life.

Nino: We’re doing our best too, but we can’t manage it. We receive allowance and pensions, but it’s not enough even for food. That’s how we live. My husband is also sick, but sometimes he works as a shepherd.  The children cry from hunger. Natia, the oldest, is a very smart girl, she goes to kindergarten. At least it’s warm there and they feed her.

– How do you manage to take care of your children in such extreme conditions? Where do you bathe them, what do you feed them?

Nino: It’s really challenging.  Sometimes neighbors bring food. We bathe in buckets. It’s impossible to keep clean here. Dirt seems to come out of the walls. Today we’re cooking beans. I think it will be enough for a few days. I know children should eat differently, but even bean soup is a luxury for them!

 – Your neighbors reached out to us.  They said you won’t be able to keep going for much longer without help. 

Nino: They worry about us a lot – they’re very kind people. They don’t live in abundance themselves, but they help my children.     Sometimes you can rely more on complete strangers than on your own relatives.

 – Do your relatives help you?

Nino: My parents died when I was little. I have a brother and sister, but I haven’t spoken to them for many years. I don’t even know how they are. And they don’t know about me either. I can’t tell you all the details, but that’s how I decided!

– I see. So, your childhood wasn’t easy either.

Nino: That’s right! I can’t remember anything good from my childhood. I can say that a person is born for suffering. I was born for it, and so was my husband. And probably, my children will suffer too. What good can they see in this pit? What can I give them? Moldy food, cold, dirt, diseases… That’s how I grew up, and that’s how my children are growing up. I don’t believe anything can be changed.

– You have beautiful children. We will do our best across all of Georgia to ensure their lives have meaning, so they can recall something good from their childhood. First and foremost, I think you need to improve your living conditions and get Nina examined. And then, with the support of society, we’ll strive to make the little ones smile more often, to give them colorful memories!

The family of Natia, Nina, and Inna serves as a testament to the struggle against an invisible enemy, where each day presents a new challenge. Creating humane conditions for them should become a priority for our society.  Let’s take a moment to pause and consider: How can we extend a helping hand to this family and many others facing similar hardships?   Only through joint efforts can we transform their lives for the better and instill hope for a future that seems unreachable at present. Let’s prove that these people are not forgotten, that they are not alone, and that we, as Georgians, will not abandon our own in times of need. The time for care and support has come!

If you are willing to visit the family and help them in person, here is their address: Telavi, 111 Peace Street.

Every time you can help someone, just do it, and rejoice that God answers someone’s prayers through you!

We are sure that all together we will manage to save this family from imminent death.

Please don’t forget to repost our story. Let your friends know about the grief of this family! It’s extremely important!
