Ill children
A mere sip of water could prove fatal for two-year-old Gabriel. His soft palate didn’t develop properly, and he can’t cry due to a congenital heart defect. For the past two years, he’s been living on the edge. No one knows when or why this ticking time bomb will go off. He can’t be left unattended for even a moment! He might choke on his own tears while crying or even lose consciousness. God, please spare any mother from experiencing such a trial.

A genetic disease, from which there is no salvation, has engulfed the life of every member of this family. Torment, unbearable suffering, and death – that’s their life script. Three ‘children’ in the family suffer from a terrible disease that takes their lives! The eldest, 29-year-old Zakro, has not gotten out of bed for years, 22-year-old Anna can still move, but with great difficulty. She sits in a chair all day long calmly, and then suddenly cries out… starts hitting herself on the head. Her mother can’t understand what she sees there. Just one year ago, the mother thought that the disease would spare her youngest daughter, but one year ago, the girl started having back pain, and it became difficult for her to walk. Tamara started getting tired quickly. What can a poor mother do? How much longer can her heart endure watching the suffering of her children?

Maya lost the ability to walk during her pregnancy. She gave birth to a wonderful son, Saba, but she herself stopped walking. It turned out that it was due to inflammation in her spinal cord. “For these four years, while my Saba was growing, I couldn’t even dress myself,” Maia says. “I couldn’t even straighten a sock on my foot. I couldn’t stand up or walk to the bathroom. I was just alive and breathing. What kind of life is that?” We will show you the results of the tests and treatments that Maia received thanks to the friends of the Chernovetskyi Fund. Maia can walk with crutches, do exercises, and even do simple household chores. Maia has overcome her deep pessimism and believes that she will be able to take her son to kindergarten on her own! Thanks to the treatment, Maia has achieved real results. Thank you for helping her regain her spirit and believe in a positive outcome. However, there are still many problems where your help is needed. Maia has no means to feed or clothe her little son. There’s no furniture in the house except for the beds, and there are no comfortable living conditions. Please consider joining the project as a constant supporter!

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.

Magda (12 years old, blind in both eyes): The world without sight is like a vast dark labyrinth. I can’t see the world, but I feel it. I can hear, touch, and smell, but I will never see the beauty described by others.

Urgently needed are very expensive, yet essential medications, as well as funds for examinations! There is a chance that at least one child in the family will be able to see!

If the title shocked you, we do not recommend reading the post about the Chikvaidze family. Those words are not the most horrifying part of this story. The family consists of four people: Giorgi, his wife Nato, and their two charming children, 4-year-old Dimitri and 2-year-old Anna. Currently, only Anna is free from any illness, as the rest of the family members cannot boast of good health. Giorgi suffers from epilepsy and a herniated spine. Nato has mental health issues. She speaks with difficulty. Sometimes she falls into a deep depression. How not to fall into depression? Her children are all alone in the world, surrounded by danger!

“It is so bitter to see your body dying gradually. I understand everything, my brain works, but everything else does not. I mourn myself, and they scold me, they say that I should not do that, they say that I should not lose hope … hope for what? My legs were paralyzed, my arms were paralyzed, now my voice is being paralyzed. Sometimes I can’t speak at all. I want to explain something with my eyes, but they don’t understand me. I call it life in hell! And I’m still young, I’m only 45 years old. Eighteen months ago, I used to go to work, I was so cheerful. I dreamed of living up to a hundred years! And after they told me my diagnosis – multiple sclerosis – my thoughts are only about death.”

Jilda: I was so afraid of this – I didn’t want to believe … They said that Luka’s condition would worsen over the years, but I believed in a miracle! I thought – what if everything would go differently for Luka, not like the others? I thought, what if the monster that lives in his head would stop developing and leave my son alone? But he started having headaches and seizures recently.

“There is such a Georgian proverb where one dead person asks the second to bring him to the grave – this is about me and my wife,” Akaki says and looks sadly at Dali. They cut off her leg due to diabetes, she is blind and feels unwell, and Akaki had an open heart surgery – bypass surgery after a heart attack, and his leg is broken. They operated on his leg two times, but his bone has not healed yet. They did not take the risk to operate on for the third time – they said his heart could not stand it. He barely hobbles on crutches, and his wife moves on a wheelchair, but she doesn’t even know where she can roll – she doesn’t see anything. They have no one but each other, and it’s hard to say which one of them suffers more.

When there is no money even to buy bread, Iuza takes the most valuable thing he has – The Order of Honor – and looks at it with annoyance. What if you sell it? For how many days there will be money to buy bread or medications? But people like Iuza don’t sell the honor. “There are things, that are not for sale. And since they are not for sale, then they are no longer things – but the meaning of life,” – says Iuza.

Otar: If she dies – I will follow her; if I die – she will not be able to live even a single day without me. That’s it. We barely live out our days, we keep each other afloat. I’d love to die, but I can’t leave her alone – so, I endure pain and all the suffering. I promised her 40 years ago that I would be with her in sorrow and joy, I would cherish her. And I keep my word.

For Keti, Mate, Anastasia and 2-year-old Mariam, their dearest mother is their grandmother. Grandma is the most beloved person in the whole universe. “I would give my life so that the children were raised by their mother. Children need mother’s warmth. But what to do – they are afraid even to remember her, they follow me like chicks, when one of them hugs me, the rest run up to me too. Baby Mariam is in my arms all the time. The worst thing is – when a person is alive, but he does not exist anymore,” the grandmother of the children – Ketino – says, holding back her tears.
