Ill children
“Nina began to suffocate – I heard her wheezing. I did everything possible to save my daughter, to help her breathe, but nothing helped. She stopped breathing, started turning blue. Her little hands became weak, and her fingers began to freeze… Nina’s heart stopped… Oh God! I know what hell looks like!” On that day, Nina almost died… her heart stopped and while the ambulance was taking her to the hospital, her brain shut down. Subsequently, Nina lost her vision and is now on life support. For 2 years now, the little beauty has been in the palliative care unit of the hospital, and doctors cannot make a prognosis for when her mother will finally manage to embrace her disease-ridden daughter. They shrug their shoulders and say – “Pray.”

What is it like to know that your child’s time is limited? And even if he doesn’t pass away before the age of two, he will never fully recover, and he will never be able to walk? To keep Dima alive, it takes just a little – our help! Doctors have already done their part – they have diagnosed and prescribed treatment, but sustaining the child’s life comes at a high cost for his mother. Dima has a stoma in his throat that he breathes through, requiring regular cleaning. Unfortunately, his mother can’t afford to buy new sterile tubes, so she has to reuse old ones multiple times. This poses a significant risk to Dima’s weakened immune system. “When I received my son’s diagnosis, it felt as if the ground had been ripped from beneath me. It was like being drenched in icy water! I felt so physically unwell that the doctors had to help me regain my composure. Spinal muscular atrophy type 1 – I was already aware of it… it was the most devastating news for my dear Dima.”

The scoundrel ended up in prison, but can this bring back a loving mother to the children?! Two years ago, Ekaterina received a terrible diagnosis – cancer! She had a mastectomy and underwent chemotherapy. The disease would recede, then return. My God, she suffered so much, the poor woman! How hard it was for her to part with her beloved and loving children before her death! But what her husband did to her is beyond comparison with even cancer. He abused her so much that he ended up in jail for it! He was a scoundrel: he never cared for his children. Vodka killed everything human in him!” Shorena (13-year-old): Mom tried to protect us and didn’t talk about a lot of things! Like all Georgian women, she never complained to anyone! But I saw it myself once after her surgery as he hit her and yelled, “When will you finally die?” When I stood up for my mom, he pushed me too. My mom used to cry a lot. She knew she had cancer, but she endured it all. I had hoped she would live longer.

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, auntie, we only have one little piece of bread left!” – that’s how two-year-old Nikusha greeted me at the doorstep and burst into tears bitterly. The worst part is that this piece still needs to be shared among five people. Nino, mother (30 years old): Can you imagine what a trial it is for a mother to watch her child cry from hunger? I am seriously ill, I have epilepsy. So, when my son and I were discharged from the maternity ward, I couldn’t even breastfeed him. There was no money for baby formula, we did not even have a feeding bottle. My poor son, how hard he cried, he was in agony, I thought he would suffocate! I got scared and called an ambulance. The doctors immediately realized the child was hungry, and the ambulance driver bought the baby a whole crate of formula and a bottle. Thanks to the kindness of strangers, we managed to survive!

Can you imagine a dying, still young 41-year-old woman, gravely ill with a constant temperature of 39–40 degrees, sometimes managing to get out of bed to collect scrap metal just to buy medicine for herself and her severely ill children, and of course, some food? At least for them – for the children – she loves more than life! A horror that cannot be described in words! God forbid any of us to experience such a thing!!! We ask the friends of the Chernovetskyi Fund to respond and take this family’s plight as their own! The most important thing God has allowed us to do in this life is not to pass by someone else’s misfortune! First and foremost, we need to take care of the mother. If something happens to her, God forbid, we will never forgive ourselves! It’s unimaginable how the sick children will cope without their mother. Mom is sacred to them, that’s all they have.

Giorgi remembers his mother, but he remembers only one thing – how she lay in the coffin and how everyone cried loudly. After that, he stopped talking, and for the past 13 years, only his grandmother and sister Mariam can understand him now. Mariam doesn’t remember their mother, and perhaps it’s for the best, as their mother passed away five days after giving birth without coming into senses or embracing her daughter.

“I don’t know what’s wrong with my daughter. Why she swells up, why pus comes out of her eyes and nose… We have been going to doctors for 2 years, had many tests and surgeries, but nothing helps I look at her and my heart breaks… she’s so cheerful, restless… she walks, chatters, laughs, but in a matter of seconds her face can swell up, she writhes in pain and cries.”

The scoundrel husband left the unfortunate woman as soon as he found out that their son was born with a terrible disease – autism! Georgi clings to his mother like a child who can’t live a day without her love. So handsome and so miserable. Two deeply unhappy people, two tragedies. Mother and son—they are alone in this cruel world. Without means to live, without food and medications, and with the relentless threat from their landlord to throw them out like dogs onto the street! to this joyless life with all I have. Because if I die, what will happen to Giorgi? His father and my other child—my daughter—forgot about us long ago. Sometimes Eteri looks sadly at old photos, remembering when she was happy! Besides Giorgi, she had a beloved daughter, Nini. Such a sweet little girl. But as she grew, by the age of 14, she suddenly became cruel! She lost her heart and conscience, never to be found again by her dying mother!
