Will Alena live or die? That is a question, friends! We found the best professor in Georgia, and he promised to save Alena's life and ordered the most advanced and expensive prostheses in Germany, which will help her live full life! Otherwise... We don’t want even to think about that. It is too serious.     Let us pray, friends! Lord, keep Alena safe! She is perishing! The decisive battle is coming up! 

"Please, save my mom!”Poor Nikoloz, a loving son of Alena, begged us and the ambulance!  I (corr.) burst into tears too.

 "I am ready not to eat chocolate until the end of my life, if only my mother would not cry ..."

“Lord, he loves me so much! He sheds so many tears... I do not want to leave him alone in this cruel world! I can no longer look at his suffering! Every day, when the pain begins, he covers his ears with his hands, runs away from the house and yells - save my mother!” - says Alena sobbing. Sometimes mental pain brings more suffering than physical one.

     “Every day I think about how to die to forget the pain from eleven difficult operations on the hip bone replacement! Imagine - eleven times Georgian doctors practiced directly on me on hip joint implantation! And finally, they implanted it in a way that a terrible infection developed, and the joint does not work! Lord, it would be better if they killed me, it would be better if I wouldn’t wake up after another anesthesia, but what to do with Nikoloz? He is such a sweet child. But I cannot restrain emotions, I don’t manage not to yell... although I used to be patient from birth.

Corr. 9-year-old Nikoloz carefully listens to our conversation and courageously as an adult refuses my chocolate!  He looked at me with his big blue eyes and swallowed hard... and quietly cried

Nikoloz: save my mom! I don't need anything! My mother is very sick. She can't walk. Tell all people who want to buy sweets or something else ... that if there are many ... such as you, ma’am, let them send money instead of chocolate and I will collect it for my mother’s operation and then save her from death... Because she is so good !!! "

Aliona (36-year-old): I've already crossed every conceivable pain threshold... I went through all circles of hell. I wonder how I am still alive, and what is holding me here - probably only Nikoloz. I try to get used to the idea that one day I won’t wake up... Sometimes death seems salvation to me, I ask the Lord to take me from here. But then I will look at Nikoloz, and I get ashamed. He loves me so much - he will perish without me. So, I endure. The child dreams of my recovery day and night. He writes letters to Santa on New Year. And the only wish he makes, blowing candles on his birthday cake and in his prayers is to run together with me again.

"Mommy, I will teach you how to walk, please do not cry."

Aliona: Since birth. I was born with a prolapse of my hip joint. Maybe it was a medical error, maybe I was already disabled in the womb - who knows? Mom took me to massages; everyone enveloped me with attention. My stepfather, my grandmother... One way or another, I developed normally, I walked, I was active, although I limped. The attending physician advised us to undergo the operation when my bones stopped growing. At the age of 23, when I started having pains, they operated on me for the first time. They replaced the entire hip joint. They said the joint had a lifetime guarantee...

Despite her special needs, she always worked, always made efforts, until her situation became so complicated ...

      Aliona: During implantation, one nerve got damaged due to tension. I returned to normal life but felt almost nothing below my knee. I moved using muscles. In 2012 I got married. In 2013 Nika was born. My angel. Despite not feeling my leg, I walked, worked, and lived a normal life. Sometimes my leg hurt, but I took painkillers and did not pay attention to it. The painkillers still worked then.

The metal structure that was implanted to Aliona

       Aliona: I was married, my husband did not care about my situation, he did not want to spend money on my health. And I hid it from my mother - about my pain, about the problems in my family, my husband’s indifference, quarrels. I didn't want my mom to worry. Probably it was my biggest mistake. At this time, I worked two jobs so that Nikusha had normal childhood. And in 2017, I started having constant pains - I became dependent on painkillers, but they no longer helped. I endured until the last, but on July 17, 2019, I collapsed, and it became impossible to hide anything.

The metal prosthesis I had in my body had to be changed urgently!”

Alena:  I was patient! It is simply incomprehensible how did I manage to go through ten operations. 

Aliona: My mother, my stepfather, who raised and cared for me from the age of two, my grandmother, who was still alive, and even my husband - with their joint efforts, debts, loans, and things sold from home, we managed to pay for ten operations... And then my husband decided I became a burden to him. He no longer needed disabled Aliona. He left me at the most difficult time for me. It hurts to recall that. You know, you can somehow soothe physical pain, but doctors have not yet come up with pills for wounded souls.

“It is impossible to endure pain without my mother's help. She is with me all the time."

        – Why did you need ten more operations?

       Aliona: Changing the prosthesis was not that easy - due to the movement of the metal, the so-called "sawdust" accumulated in the base... Doctors  cleaned me, cut off the flesh, "put me in metal" - fixed with screws, "cemented"... Lord, I went through terrible agony... The joint shifted three times, it tore the muscles, skin. God, it was scary to look at that...My leg got tremendously swollen. They took out a huge amount of pus by drainage. It was a nightmare. There is still a lot of pus. We keep undergoing medical procedures. 

This is documentation and x-rays from all operations. There is a huge lot of them, so that you can fill the library.

Aliona’s medications. She needs at least 400-500 GEL per month for medications

 If I only could... I would give my joint to my daughter, and we would forgot about these pieces of iron...”

       - What can help you now?

        Aliona: An operation, but we will never manage to find funds for it unless we have the support of good people. I want to address the entire Georgia! Please help me ... Do not leave my son an orphan. I can endure pain - I only want my leg to not fester. If only I did not rot away in this hellish torment. 

        – Should the implant be replaced again during the operation? 

       Aliona: Yes, they must put an implant made of silver metal to avoid infections. It is necessary to remove the entire pus, cut off all the dead muscles.  That is why this operation is so expensive. We won't be able to pay for it without help.

       - If the doctors don’t operate on you in time, then…

       Aliona: I will die in agony. I will rot away. And my son will watch that. The pieces of flesh fall off from me... 

 "My mother will live, won't she?"

        At the gate I met little Nika again, he was still shy and hiding. And again, he asked me in a clear voice: “Ma’am, will you save my mom?” How could I not say yes to this question when there are so many kind people behind me! Aliona Zaridze’s address is: Tbilisi, 13 Bukhaidze street.
