Before tragedy struck, Likuna loved singing, dancing, and taking tons of selfies. But then, during a game, one of the kids accidentally hit her in the head with a rock. Since then, her family has only seen her distant expression, worrying during her epileptic seizures, and dressing her in diapers. It seems like her mind is asleep. But when we arrived to deliver the presents you provided to the single mother Tamara and her four daughters, we were in for an emotional shock! The workers carried a fridge into the house, set up a new gas stove, and brought in a washing machine.  The only thing left was the TV. Likuna showed interest in it, so we played a Rihanna song for her…  And Likuna danced like she used to! She smiled like she used to! She was happy and free from her illness for those four minutes! In those four minutes, we, moved to tears, witnessed the miracle your kindness worked!!! Lika needs to continue her treatment; it’s a matter of utmost importance. The Tsukhishvili family is deeply touched by the tireless attention you’re giving them. How we wish for the illness to recede! With faith in Lika’s recovery, we will continue to help her!

Reziko cries without ceasing. It’s not even a cry, it’s more of a moan from the pain in his spine. He can’t lie down or sit for long periods. The boy is constantly tense and can’t even straighten his fingers. It’s hard to believe, but Reziko was born perfectly healthy. Due to a medical mistake, he became disabled in an instant. Gulo (mother, 33 years old): Reziko is my first and long-awaited son. He was our joy. He grew up to be a smart boy, but when he was eight months old, he got very sick and his ears hurt a lot… I’m sorry, I can’t tell this story without tears. There’s a lump in my throat.

“Just a week after you highlighted our need, our empty home was filled with furniture, appliances, and children’s clothes!” – says Eter. “In a week, you solved problems that other organizations ignored! With you, I don’t feel like a beggar; I feel heartfelt attention and support. People call me every minute, asking what we need and how the little ones are doing. And I tell everyone that everything is wonderful now!”

This is 84-year-old Tamila Gagua. Her life is so tragic that even the Holy Mother might shed bitter tears… The story I’m about to tell will make your blood run cold. A tragedy that will be remembered for centuries. It all began many years ago, on a snowy winter day, when a lonely, widowed old woman in the village of Chognari was visited by her only son from Kaliningrad (where he was serving in the army). Her son got married there. Grandmother Tamila welcomed her daughter-in-law as her own daughter. But the most important part is yet to come. When Grandma Tamila saw her son holding a one-year-old boy with big eyes, she immediately knew it was her grandson, and she almost lost her mind with happiness. But her joy turned out to be premature. The boy was underdeveloped, he could not walk.

For five months, Georgian doctors have been unable to diagnose this unfortunate boy. Giorgi’s time is running out! Five months ago, a completely healthy boy suddenly fell ill, and since then, the sound of death’s footsteps has grown louder and louder in the Ochkhorashvili family. The child is suffocating. He coughs so loudly it seems like his lungs are torn. He has stopped talking and makes sounds as if someone has cut his vocal cords. He can only get food and water through the tube, but he vomits it back out. The oxygen machine is the only thing keeping him alive. But for how long??? The boy’s life timer is on. Turn on the video and you will hear the sounds of death! Father Giorgi and Nikoloz and Gogi’s mother are begging for help to raise money for the trip to Germany for an examination! We will announce the cost of the surgery once we receive the papers! Lord, help! Since there are already very few of us left in Georgia….

“Sikoria deda,” Ketevan repeats and cries again. Then she obediently allows Matsatso to take care of her. She eats soup from a spoon and listens to the praise of how good a girl she is. Matsatso changes her diaper and takes her for a little ride in a wheelchair around the yard. And the tears keep flowing. Her right arm is immobile, and her right leg is too. Her tongue is unresponsive and sluggish. Her eyes see nothing… This is what the stroke did to Ketevan. No, this is what a state can do to a person. Look at the helpless Ketevan and be careful! This is the high price one can pay for trying to get help from the state.
