Raul was only 20 days old when a high fever caused him to have severe seizures. There was no doctor in the village, and by the time they got him to the district center he got paralyzed. The devastating diagnosis was cerebral palsy (CP). His parents were shocked – they hadn’t yet recovered from a horrific tragedy: their firstborn daughter, just 1 year and 8 months old, had died of diphtheria. Imagine how hard it was for them to accept their son’s condition! For 26 years, Raul has lived with constant pain. His left leg is so twisted it can’t be straightened. Raul’s spine is severely curved, which has deformed his internal organs. Even breathing is painful for him. He cannot go without painkillers and sedatives. He’s been in a wheelchair since childhood. It has replaced his legs, as he cannot take even a few steps on his own.

“I am not afraid of death, I am afraid for my daughter, for my husband, they are sick and cannot cope without me!” – Lela bursts into tears.

“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. “

I do not ask for myself because this is not life! But why should people I love so much suffer with me?! God help me!!! When 46-year-old Ramaz begins to sob like a child, from unbearable gnawing mental pain, only his younger brother Revaz can calm him down. For 14 years now, Revaz has been not only a brother for Ramaz, but also his arms, legs, and the only support.

You, and only you, can save this young woman and save from a 7-year-old daughter from orphanage!
