What we have seen today

  We had such a sad and emotional day today. First. I would like to thank everyone who praying for Zhenya. She was so glad to hear people from abroad praying for her and caring. Thank you all! But she still need a lot of prayers...
  
   Zhenya had a surgery today in the morning. She was trembling and very scared. If you don't know, she had lost her baby yesterday. 

   We came to the hospital to visit her again today. And at this time a doctor wanted to check out everything or young mommy is okay. And they made a surgery again... Second time for a day. Zhenya felt absolutely everything and it was terribly to hear her screaming. When we asked a nurse to make an injection for Zhenya that she would not feel a pain. She said it is too late. A doctor is cleaning everything away right now. Than a nurse said they made her a novocaine, probably it did not help our girl and they can do nothing. Poor soul. Imagine this all, her screaming and tears made us all sick and we went out on the street to pray and wait until doctor finish everything...


 Then maybe 40 minutes later when doctor finished, we could visit Zhenya.

This is free government "nice" hospital in village. But you always have to buy medicine for your own money. If you don't have money, it is your problem, simply to die. Also hospital feeds you but very cheap food. It can be a soup, where few pieces of potatoes, maybe you will find there a carrot and you get a piece of bread. If your friends or relatives would not bring you food and not feed you, you would survive or become more sick or die. Maybe a nurse would feed you but there no guarantee.

The shower and toilet is only one for all corridor, where can be about 50 sick patients and plus staff who work there.If you don't have money to pay for medicine, staff can yelling at you, humiliate, don't take a good care, ignore you and so on.


Second day in a row we are crying and feel so sad about Zhenya... We prayed with her and comforted. My hands are trembling typing to think about what this poor mommy has to go through. She  trembling from fear and pain...

Zhenya should be 4 more days at hospital because she had a big term of pregnancy and she will get antibiotics that everything will be well and she be healthy. She has some problems with health. We are asking you to pray for poor girl God help and heal her.Thank you!

We got used to see this often, when we visit sick young adults, orphans or support and to be present with young mothers, when they give birth of little babies. Imagine how it can be hard if you don't have someone to help you? People feel lonely and depressed. But brother Kevin, who is our current guest from U.S. these days, he was shocked and cried...

We don`t know, who it was boy or girl whom the mommy lost. The baby was dead more than a week or two. Zhenya knows she will see her baby in the Heaven someday. Prayers, please, for our sweet girl.Thanks.

  1. How terrifying for Zhenya, and how unnecessarily painful. So sad to read that people without compassion work at the hospital - I pray God will soften their hearts and make them kinder to those they serve. Just hard to understand such cruelty.

    I have been thinking about Zhenya all day - she and Kolya are on the Faith Fellowship Church prayer list now.

    I am glad this long hard day is over, and pray that the days ahead will be much, much better. Give Zhenya and Kolya hugs from me when you can - so glad you and others from BOM were there to encourage her.
