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.

Lika (6-year-old): Mom hugs me very tight in the morning to keep me warm. Then we have tea. Then mommy leaves me with a neighbor, and she goes “tormenting” the cow.

– What do you mean – “tormenting“?

Lika: Well, how to say… Well, so that she gives milk. Milking… Can you do that?? My mommy can! She is something! But I don’t know yet how many cows she has to milk so that I can go to the dancing classes. I still can’t count to that much. (Little Lika talks and gently strokes her mother on the cheek.) I never want candy. I never ask my mother to buy it… But sometimes she brings them to me herself. But I never ask. It’s true!

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.

“Merab is our crybaby, he is the youngest, but the most chowhound! He doesn’t let the bread out of his hands, he thinks that we will take it away from him … but in fact we even give him our sausages! Mom brings sausages from the canteen once a week. As many as 10! But we give everything to Merab, he’s little! And we are all adults, we understand that mom has no money. But Merabiko doesn’t understand it. He doesn’t understand anything yet. He just cries: “I want some meat, give me some meat.”

“I like to go to kindergarten because there is food!” – says 5-year-old little beauty Tamar, looking into my eyes naively. This adorable little girl with celestial blue eyes was the first to rush out from this pitiful shack to greet us. Still quite a baby, she does not understand that her words tear one’s heart and bring tears in his eyes.

Not all people have the right to be called human beings. Moreover, not everyone can bear the title of a parent. When this sunny girl was three months old, her father kicked her out of his house. Lizi and her mother were left starving in the street. They wandered around acquaintances, knocked on all doors, begged for a piece of bread. Then one kind woman sheltered them. The story of Lizi and Teona could have ended very sadly if not for Givi – a man sent by God, who just by a chance appeared in their life.
