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.
Living in horrifying poverty is already a tremendous challenge, and adding the loss of sight to it makes the situation truly hopeless. Each of us carries a glimmer of hope, but what is it like when even the brightest light cannot penetrate the darkness?
Friends, let’s bring light into the lives of these wonderful people! 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!

Natia has experienced moments that break the strongest hearts. Her son, Zuka, came into the world, literally fighting for his life. But the joy of the long-awaited birth of her son was mixed with worry and eternal fear.

Mishiko crawls on the floor and makes strange sounds… He is stopped by his 7-year-old brother Gela. He is afraid that Mishiko will hurt his hand again on the rotten and cracked floorboards. Mishiko screams louder and tries to crawl away from his brother, who is desperately trying to hold him back. They are alone at home. “Dad went to buy bread, and mom is in heaven,” says Gela.
