Older people living alone
In 2017, 64-year-old Tiniko had a cancerous tumor removed from her bladder, but no money was left for follow-up checkups or tests for the poor woman! Instead, they gave her construction materials so she wouldn’t die early under the ruins of her house—a house worse and more terrifying than anything we’ve seen in all our years of work! Oh, and they gave her 50 lari a month to live on! Just look at this crooked shack, standing on rotten beams. Now imagine, for a second, this elderly woman being tasked with rebuilding her house. Such care, right? Oh Lord, Lord, don’t judge harshly those who do not know you! Read this post to the end, and feel this tragedy with your heart, kind people!

Ill children
When he was just a month and a half old, he had heart surgery. However, it wasn’t enough. The child’s condition is still critical, and according to doctors, he may need a second, more complex surgery, which requires further tests. The poor single mother doesn’t have the money to take them to the doctor. What I’m about to tell you, dear readers, is truly horrifying, and it is very hard for me to write these words, but you need to know this. The twin brothers have only one teat, and when they both cry at the same time, their mother has to take turns giving it to them. God, just the thought of this is enough to drive someone mad.

Look at this photo! For a moment, it might seem as though someone opened a grave and photographed someone long deceased. But 43-year-old Indira is still alive. Her heart still beats. But this young woman is being consumed alive by stage four cancer. Two years ago, while pregnant with her third child, she was diagnosed with nasopharyngeal cancer. She was operated on fifteen times in just a month and a half. God, it’s hard to believe. Since June, she’s been unconscious in intensive care.

One fateful day, the peaceful village of Babi in the Kharagauli municipality was engulfed by the terrifying roar of fire. The house where eight children lived was completely consumed by flames. Thank God, all the children made it out unharmed, but imagine how painful it must be to see your beloved home, your cherished belongings, books, and toys burned to ashes. The family lived in poverty and didn’t own a single valuable item, but our love for things doesn’t come from their price. Sometimes expensive things mean nothing to us. Sometimes a cheap item is far more precious. Friends of the Fund, winter is coming soon to the mountain village, and these little angels will have to bathe outside in the freezing cold. Then, after catching colds, they’ll lie down on sheets spread out on the floor, because they don’t have beds. Cold wind will blow in through the broken window onto the sick children. There’s no pharmacy in the village. Somehow, these children survived last winter. But they won’t make it through another…

Irma chains to a rusty bed in a five-square-meter dark room and suffers… The woman has no husband or children. Her parents are also dead. Yes, the poor woman is completely alone and cannot even get out of bed to drink water. Irma was completely healthy, but the death of her beloved mother affected her so much that she developed an insidious disease. The woman began having problems with mobility back in 2009. However, due to poverty, she was unable to see a doctor. Poor Irma’s health worsened after the death of her mother. In 2019, doctors diagnosed the poor woman with multiple sclerosis.

Six-year-old Sophia and her three-year-old brother Andria often have these tummy sounds. Their daddy is sick, very sick. He almost died five years ago. We will tell you about that later. We will tell you about how one accident can turn the happy, carefree life of any family into hell. No, we are not scaring you. We are trying to wake you up.
The fact that children have the right to receive healthy food is rather an exception to the rule in Georgia. This is not a typo, but a sad reality. There are a lot of families in Georgia where children do not eat normally – they do not eat at all. They eat from time to time, while mom saves a meager allowance. This post, like most of our posts, will be about hunger… We will repeat it again: children should not grow up in such poverty! They shouldn’t be hungry!
Mariam (5-year-old): When I tell mommy the word “candy”, she immediately starts crying. Are you afraid of this word too? Candy, candy! Well, you are not afraid! Then give me “two money”, I will buy candy for us, and for mom, and for you. Do you want me to buy? Or I’ll buy cookies.

“Do you know that the New Year is coming soon? Do you have children? Will Santa come to them? Did they behave well? Will you give them some presents too? The dolls? And candy? And dresses like Princess Elsa has?” – plies me with questions six-year-old Barbare.

For two-year-old Ramaz, candy is the most wonderful creation on earth! Candy is like a mom and a sister! Those rare days when his mom can buy him one candy becomes a holiday for him. He cares for it as for the apple of his eye, and even kisses it.
“Oh, what a funny child,” you would say and smile if you don’t know who it’s about. And what will your reaction be if I say that he ate sweets only a few times during his childhood? What if I tell you that sometimes tea is his only food? What if I say that he envies his sister the most because his mother is breastfeeding her? Will you again say that he is quirky, or will you be horrified?

“I’m Zakaria. I am 31 years old. I realize that I am a grown man, but I need my mom, as in the first years of my life. I am disabled, no matter how rude this word sounds. Yes, I am like this. I’ve been half-human for 10 years now. If not for my mother, I probably would not have been able to move at all. She makes me live. She wakes me up in the morning to do my exercises. I have no idea where she gets so much energy. She says to me: “I can do anything for you, but I cannot do exercises instead of you.” She has been enduring my bad temper for 10 years now. She endures all my failures. And my small victories are only her merit. The fact that I can stand, eat and speak on my own is all thanks to my mother. “

These words belong to a 54-year-old woman who is at the age that is sometimes called the prime of life. But Eliso became related to death…
When you bury half of your family at once – father, mother, brother, sister, nephew – your life is not at all important. Eliso’s heart was crushed with grief, but her misfortunes did not stop. They continue to this day.
