These are the words of a young woman, Natia Toliashvili, the mother of Alexander, who can't find a moment of peace due to his hunger. He hasn't eaten for days, and to curb his hunger, his mother feeds him tea! Yes, you heard that right – tea is the only edible thing they have. Well, there's also the bread from which Natia scraped off all the mold, and the bread doesn't seem as daunting now. But the smell and taste don't vanish. And the little one clings to it and bites it fiercely. This will be his only treat until they receive assistance. For the next few days, his mother will prepare porridge, boil pasta, maybe even manage to make soup with cabbage and greens... and after that, it's back to bread and tea... and his mother's songs, an attempt to shift her son's attention even for a brief moment.

Alexandre also welcomed the New Year with happiness – with a tangerine and gifts!

The fair-haired little angel Alexandre could have advertised porridge or diapers, but he lived in inhumane conditions. Instead of diapers, his poor mother Natia, crying, used to put rags for him; instead of porridge, she gave him moldy bread soaked in tea. Mice took the last remaining bits of food from the old refrigerator. The baby had countless illnesses...

Due to hunger and ailments, Alexandre was torn apart by crying!

Over one and a half thousand of our readers rushed to save the young family! You brought them bags of groceries, supplies of diapers, flu medicines, and toys. Our Alexander started eating properly and gaining weight. He's chubby now, with rosy cheeks. The little guy is really happy with his new life and beams like sunshine.

He likes his new life: his Mom laughs, jokes around, there's porridge to eat, and toys to play with!

Natia: Many families came with diapers, food, and clothes. They still call, asking: "How is the child? What else do you need? Are you okay?" Among our readers, we've particularly become close to Natalia from Tbilisi.  She's well-informed about all our news and often passes along things for Alexandre. Another new friend of ours is Achi Vashakmadze, also from Tbilisi. When Alexandre bumped himself, injured his eye, and his eyelid swelled up, I got very scared, and I sent Achi a photo of the child. He immediately helped us, without hesitation. And the readers were just as concerned as I was. They sent us money, gathered funds for medicines, and thank God, his little eye is now fine.

 I now have a complete stash of children's medicines – for the throat, nose, inhalation solutions. Alexander has a delicate throat.  And, whenever needed, I promptly treat him to prevent complications. 

When my husband had pneumonia, you saved us again. You've been involved with us all the time. Thank you so much! 

My disabled brother, Levan Toliashvili, is also under your care. You've dedicated a separate project to him and pay great attention. For our family, you are protectors and patrons; I'm always grateful that you are with us!

- How did our little one react to the gifts? What did our little bunny enjoy the most?

Giorgi: I've never seen my son so happy!  He was jumping, shouting, and laughing when they brought in the tricycle.  I almost teared up from the emotions. I never had one in my childhood; I grew up in an orphanage. Let him have one. He's so thrilled about the building blocks and toy cars that it brings tears to my eyes. Thank you, people! 

Mom is steering the bike, and Sasha is beeping!

Natia: Alexandre used to just watch others play. Now, he spends the whole day riding his new tricycle. He can't ride by himself yet, so I pull him along, holding the handlebars.   He screams, squeals, laughs – a million emotions.

Sasha used to only watch others play, and now he has a bunch of toys of his own!

- Those little cheeks, you just want to give them a kiss! He gained weight, right?

Natia: Thank God, he started gaining weight! I was really worried about it.  Alexandre weighed 11 kilograms from 11 months old and didn't gain a gram. It was terrifying, how afraid I was. The Fund covered our examinations, and it turned out there were no pathologies or serious problems. It was because of poor nutrition. They said there was a deficiency in vitamins D and B. 

As soon as you started feeding him, he immediately started growing in both weight and height. Now, Alexandre weighs 13 kg, and his height is 78 cm (for comparison, it used to be 70 cm). 

Every month, I buy groceries worth 300 lari, everything necessary for my son.

For chocolate yogurt, Sasha uses a big spoon!

- Let's show and tell the readers how your living conditions have changed.

Giorgi: I borrowed the old refrigerator from my boss, where I work part-time on the farm. I returned it to him. No one steals Sasha's food from the new refrigerator. The door fits so tightly that not a single mouse can sneak in. And if by chance it does, it will freeze in a minute; that's how well it cools the products (smiles).

Not a single mouse will steal Sasha's food from the new refrigerator!

Natia: We didn't have diapers, and I constantly washed wet and soiled diapers for Alexandre by hand. Now, we have diapers and a washing machine. My hands are no longer something to be ashamed of - my fingers are no longer swollen, and the skin is not scraped, as it used to be (she shows her hands).

Natia: "Before, I walked around with swollen, red fingers from washing.  The new machine spares both my hands and my energy."

I baked these potato patties today in the new oven. Alexandre has already eaten three. Readers brought me groceries: lots of flour, potatoes, onions, and yeast. I cook khachapuri, patties, and lobiani on the new gas stove. On the old tabletop, two-burner stove, I always cooked the same thing. And there was no mood.

Now there's mood and inspiration to cook: patties, lobiani, kofta... 

Before, no matter where I looked in the house, my spirits would drop. Clothes were lying in bags on the floor, the bed was broken, and there were mice in the fridge...  I often cried, was nervous.

I am so happy that now our family has so many new things, and Alexandre, Giorgi, and I have started living a bit differently. I love the new wardrobe and the double bed. It's just fantastic. We find ourselves smiling and laughing more. If it weren't for these challenges, nothing would be bothering us. Our love for each other is strong. We place our little one right in the middle of the bed, between us, and it's the best evening for our family.

The whole family relaxes on the new bed in the evening.

Natia: "We're all smiling and laughing more."

Giorgi: "Let's fly, let's fly!"

- Did you manage to get rid of the mice, Natia?

Natia: Oh no, there are still plenty of them.  They're still bothering us. I honestly don't know how to get rid of them. I've put some special glue for them, that my husband's boss gave us.

- Natia, what would you like to say to our readers?

Natia: For saving my Alexander, I'm giving you all a big, tight hug! Wishing you all the joys in the world for bringing happiness to my family!   For looking out for my brother Levan, I'm asking the Lord to bless you with good health. May this New Year bring you prosperity and well-being. Our little family wishes you nothing but success! We wish all of Georgia prosperity! And, honestly, we adore you! You're like family to us!

After a spin in the new stroller, Sasha nods off much quicker.

- Natia, that's a very heartfelt wish!   Let's all work together to uplift our small and beautiful country. Here's a question: Did the local authorities help you to sort out your problems?

Natia: We submitted an application to the city hall regarding the apartment.    They say it's "under consideration."  I have a feeling it's not going anywhere. We'll see. As for firewood, the district administration said, "Don't even bother writing.  There's no such program anymore."  That's why Giorgi and I went to the forest for firewood.  We were tired of searching or chopping firewood every day, and suddenly, we received a New Year's gift from you – a gas heater! 

- Natia, what needs do you still have, and how else can we help? 

Natia: Could I ask for a small folding table and a few chairs from you? We have our meals sitting on the bed. Also, can we request some porridge for our son? Thank you for being so kind to us! 

Mom has her TV show time. In the harsh life of the family, there's at least a bit of comfort now: a TV and a heater.

This young family doesn't have a place to call home. Even the temporary shelter in the village of Krtsanisi, where they're allowed to stay while Giorgi works as a shepherd, isn't truly theirs. But their love is stronger than hunger and cold.   Let's lend them a hand with food and clothing so they can weather these challenges. Let's stand together to ensure the resilience of our community and see Georgia thrive!

 If you have a heavy heart because of everyday problems or unresolved issues, as a distraction just see our posts on Facebook, or better call any of our beneficiaries, and all your problems will seem unimportant to you, compared with the problems of those to whom you helped in the most difficult moment of their lives.

Our problems are nothing if compared... Here are true misfortunes, in front of your eyes! Just thank the Lord for what you have. You are the happiest person in the world! Remember this and help those in need.

Unfortunately, problems of this and other families do not end here and now... Therefore, from time to time, look through the stories of unhappy people on our website, and talk to them. Every time you dial the Phone of an unhappy person, God is blessing you! For sure! Go on helping these families! This is the best service to the Lord!

Friends, there is one more request: if you know about the misfortune of a neighbor or friend do a godly deed, drop us an email at: office-fsp@fsp.ge

Your kindness is a chance for yourself to be happy!

Friends, thanks again to each of you!
