Because when mummy has a fit at night, she can strangle me. It’s very scary… – Little Mariam told us from the doorway, as soon as we entered the room where a family of five lived. The mother had fallen ill with epilepsy and now periodically beats like a wounded bird in terrible fits in front of the child.

0901200270Two little babies
Gabriella and Daniella – two-month-old sisters of baby Mariam – do not yet
realize the poverty and hopelessness of their large family, but they have
already fully felt the real hunger… Their sick mother has no milk, and there is
no way to buy formula milk.
– At the moment I’m more
worried about Gabriella and Daniella than anything else in the world. They need
to eat, and my husband and I can’t buy formula milk. I tearfully ask you, help
me! Maybe good people will feel sorry for our children and buy them
“Nutriben 1″! It depends on whether our girls will live or die of
starvation!” – with tears in her eyes, the heartbroken mother pleads
us.
– Nino, calm down and
tell me everything in order.
Nino: I got epilepsy 8
years ago. I’ve been healthy all my life, I never even caught a cold, and after
I got married, I started having seizures. The doctors said it was epilepsy.
Now I can’t live a day
without medication, and the doses are increasing… I’m even afraid to
take girls in my arms, and what if I have a fit and drop them?
But our main problem is
not in me – we literally have nothing to feed the children with. Twins
Gabriella and Daniella were born prematurely – eight months old. They need
special care, and unfortunately I don’t have my own milk to feed them. The
doctor prescribed us a special formula, “Nutriben 1”, which has
vitamins and it does not hurt the girls’ tummies. But we can’t afford to buy it
every time, we have to buy something cheaper. But other formula milk are bad
for the girls… So we really need this formula. I’m afraid my daughters will
starve to death…
I cry all the time,
looking at my children, Mariam and the twins. Every morning I think: what to
feed them? We asked everyone who we could to help us. But how much can other
people help? You know, it’s difficult for everyone today.
– We are very sorry for
your grief! Did you ask someone for help? The local authorities, for example?
Nino: Yes, Tbilisi
Mayor’s Office has been paying for the apartment we are currently living in
since last October. I asked the Mayor’s Office to help us with the rent, since
I am a disabled person of the second group. And they really helped me – they
have financed the lease for one year, until October 2020.
We don’t receive any
other help from the authorities.
– And what about your
relatives and close people?
Nino: Our parents are
already elderly and can’t help us. It is we, the young ones, who should take
care of them, but, as you can see, we also need help…
Both my husband and I
were born and raised in Tbilisi, both in large families. My husband has seven
brothers and sisters, and my family had four children. They have a hard life,
but they support us as best they can: some with food, some with clothes… But
everyone has their own family, their own problems…
– Do you believe that
strangers can be good to you?
Nino: Yes, I do. For
example, the godfather of my eldest daughter, Mariam, gave us a TV set. Our
roommates help us with food. If someone makes pancakes or even cooks macaroni,
they will definitely bring it in and treat Mariam. Everyone loves them so much.
– Nino, did you ever
think that such a misfortune could happen to you?
Nino: Before marriage, I
dreamed of a large and friendly family, a good husband and children. This dream
came true. When you are young, no one thinks that life will be hard, no one can
imagine that he will have nothing to feed his children with.
– How did you meet your
future husband?
Nino: At our mutual
friend’s birthday party. We were twenty-three years old then. As Temur says, he
immediately laid eyes on me, and I liked him very much at first sight. Neither
Temur nor I were in love until then – we are the first love for each other. On
that birthday it all started… We didn’t meet for long, we got married quickly.
Soon our Mariam was born.
The troubles that have
befallen us have not broken our love, they have only strengthened our family…
Temur is my support.
– Nino, what do you believe
in? Do you believe in God?
Nino: I believe that the
Lord will not leave us! I am a very religious person and often turn to God,
pray in my own words, talk to the Lord, and share my sorrows with him… If God
hadn’t supported me, I’d be dead by now…
– Tell us about little
Mariam, does she go to school or kindergarten?
Nino: Our eldest
daughter Marie (6 years old) will go to school in September. And she didn’t go
to kindergarten. She is very sociable and loves children, but as far as she
does not have clothes and shoes, I could not take her to kindergarten. In the
yard, when Marie sees other children’s toys, she asks to buy the same doll or
Bicycle as the others. And I tell her: “Pray, and God will give you
everything.”
Marie is very talented
and loves math. We studied at home with her, and she can count to twenty, add
and subtract numbers, it’s interesting to her. She likes to draw and asks for
new pencils and coloring books every day, but I can’t buy them for her.
She’s interested in
everything. She is a child, she wants everything: beautiful dresses and new
toys. But, alas, we can’t afford it… We are thinking about how to feed the
children…
– What are your
living conditions?
Nino: We rent an
apartment in a hostel in Mukhiani for 350 lari. The conditions are bad, one
small room in which the five of us huddle.
– What’s your family’s
income? What can you afford?
Nino: I receive a social
allowance in the amount of 140 lari. We also receive a child benefit from the
mayor’s office in the amount of 50 lari for each child, that is 150 lari. And
that’s it. We live having only 290 lari per month.
My husband Temur is not
working now, and used to work for the Coca-Cola company, but he was made
redundant. Now he can’t work, because he has a problem with his eyes. We don’t
even know what is the problem, we can’t go to a good specialist – there is no
possibility. He wanted to get a job as a janitor, but they didn’t take him
because of vision problems.
Thank God all the
children are healthy!
– I see little
Mariam is anxious to talk to me. Little one, what do you want to tell me?
Mariam (6 years old):
– Aunt, my favorite toy
is the Elsa doll, my mother tells Elsa and me bedtime stories about funny
animals from the forest. I’m not afraid, and Elsa…? Such a coward!
I like the Bunny, he
runs away from everyone. He’s such a coward (bursts out laughing)! He is afraid
of everyone: the wolf, the bear, even the birds… But why? After all, mom
and dad will always save them! What a stupid hare…
– Mari, do you want to
go to school?
– Yes, I do. I already
know the English letters! And I can count to 20! But, you know, aunt, I need
dresses for school! After all, there are many children and I want to be
beautiful like them! And I didn’t go to the kindergarten to see the children as
I had no dresses. Just don’t forget – I’m a little plump and let the dresses be
bigger! You won’t forget, will you? – The child looked up at me with concern.
– No, child. Your mom
will tell us your size and you will have beautiful new dresses.
– And there is something
more… I think (she wrinkled her forehead and thought) that for greater
happiness (spread her hands, showing the size of happiness) I need a pink
bicycle, and that it has Elsa from the cartoon “Cold heart” drawn on
it.
Also, when I go to
school, I want to sleep alone, not with my mom and dad, because when mom has a
seizure, she can strangle me at night. Very scary…
– Nino, what do you
dream of the most?
– I dream of a cottage
in the country… I want to have my own farm, a cow, a pig, chickens, a yard with
flowers, I want my children to run in the yard. I can even see it in my
dreams… I am not afraid of life in the country, I dream of it.
I see my girls running
around the yard, drinking warm milk, I see their pink cheeks… That’s what I need
to be happy…
– What are in your
opinion the things you need at home in the first place?
Nino: first of all,
“Nutriben 1” formula milk for Gabriella and Daniella! This is the
most important for us now.
And for home, I’ve
never had a washing machine in my life. If you can, give it to me! This will be
a real happiness for me! With my illness, it is very difficult for me to wash
in cold water.
We have nothing: no
refrigerator, no heater, no gas stove. It is necessary to prepare food for
one day – after all, there is nothing to store cooked food and products in.
I would like a
separate bed for my daughter Mariam, who is already 6 years old, she still
sleeps with us in the same bed, we cannot buy her a separate bed.
– Why did you decide to
apply to our Fund?
Nino: No one needs us,
and everyone is talking about your Fund. I believe that there will be people
who will help us, who will take our trouble to heart. I think that the
Chernovetskyi Fund will help us find new loyal friends.
