When we were visiting families with disabled children, we met one family closer. Olga has two children, 10 and 12 years old, they both are diagnosed with a psychological delayed development. Olgas life is not easy. A year ago, she buried her mother, who died from a stroke. One of her siblings was diagnosed with schizophrenia and is being treated in a psychiatric hospital. Her second brother is addicted to alcohol. With him her problems began in her life. He asked to live in her apartment. She could not refuse to help him. Within a few months, he turned the apartment into a landfill. It became not just uncomfortable, but impossible to live in. He was sent in a rehabilitation. We pray that he will find freedom.
During the stay, the brother did not pay for utilities! He didn’t bring any money home. She had to accumulate debt and now there is a danger that the apartment will be taken from her. Olga turned to us for help: “I was left all alone. If you do not help, no one will help me.” We decided to help Olga and put the apartment in order. In order to make necessary repairs and to make the apartment became livable again we will need about $2000. We really hope for the help of caring people. We believe that through our care of Olga and her children, her heart will open for the Gospel.
