0901200270I loved the sea and the ocean. He has visited all the continents. He personally
met Fidel Castro and the President of Guinea. The last few years he was the director
of a sports school. He educated children. He old them about the seas and
oceans. After all, Georgia is a sea country!
And today this fearless hero, 79-year-old sailor, Levan
Salukvadze, lives out his days in the dreadful loneliness, coldness and
hunger!
“I’ve never been so lonely and miserable! Even during strong gales, when
there is one only death around you! And now… even death has left me!”
Friends, could 260 lari suffice for such a sick, old and lonely
person for food per month?
“My Pension and social benefits are spent on medicines, without which I
will not wake up, and there is nothing to eat! Oh, God, I wish I’d drowned in
the sea!” – The old man complains…
“These men are not people! Recently, some heartless scoundrels from the
gas office came and cut off the gas. And now I don’t even have hot water. And I
have a stroke and a sick heart and 100 other terrible illnesses…
Tea and bread are all my food for the day. Recently I wanted to sweep the floor
but when I bent down I fainted. I fell to the floor. And I would have died…
Because there is nobody around! And I’m Georgian. I am a proud man. And such
humiliation…
–Tell us about yourself, about your past life…
Levan Salukvadze: I graduated as a sailor. At first I served as a cabin boy,
then as a sailor, and then as an assistant captain. The sea is my whole
life!
– Tell me, why did you remain lonely in your old age?
Levan Salukvadze: My wife could not stand my crazy rhythm of life. She left…
I still love her! And our daughter married an Italian and went to Italy. But
her personal life was not successful. The curse is upon us! She divorced her
husband, and now she is barely making ends meet.
– What does an ex-sailor dream of?
Levan Salukvadze: (smiling) I dream to see the sea, to touch the waves, to
enter the deck at least once more. However, I know that’s a completely
unrealistic dream. My real life is so miserable that these dreams will
accompany me to the other world…
– And when you leave the sea?
Levan Salukvadze: It was after the collapse of the Soviet
Union, in the hungry and cold 90s. But I was not idle. I’m a former pentathlon
athlete! So I headed a sports school and for 15 years, before retirement,
coached children, taught them to love a healthy lifestyle. You know, if I’m
still holding on, it’s a credit to the old school, as well as to your Fund,
which does not leave me without attention.
– Are you satisfied with our “Home care” program?
Levan Salukvadze: “Satisfied” is not the word. I’m happy that
you “found” me and take care of me. Your doctor Manana is a person
with a huge heart. I love her so much! Despite the fact that the state of my
health is supported by medicines, the most important medicine for me, for a
completely lonely person, is communication. Therefore, every visit of your
medical staff, as well as your social worker, is a real holiday for me. I may
have bored them with my memories of the past, but for me it is a huge
inspiration, and a real salvation! Thank you!
Friends, let’s throw a rope of help to the old captain thrown overboard by the
tsunami. Let’s not let him drown with thoughts that he was betrayed his people
– the most beautiful and “kind” ship on the whole planet – by
Georgia!
He needs a lot: food, medicines, hygiene products, household items, bed linen,
dishes… and most importantly, attention of compatriots!
If you do not have a possibility to help with money, make sure to repost this
publication! Let your friends know about the grief of this old and sick
captain! And God will surely help you if storm would, God forbid, happen in
your life.
