As far as I remember, I have always had many friends in the courtyard, in school, later in school, in the army, and much later in adulthood. But the trouble happened at the age of 28, in 2000 he suffered a trauma to the spine (cervical department) and remained almost completely paralyzed. Five years after I got injured, my friends came to visit me. Meeted them always well, parents knew not only friends but also their wives, children and always treated them well And then gradually people began to "disappear" I never asked them about anything only come. As a result, everyone stopped riding, only Valera remained, he still does not come often twice or three times a month, which helps around the house where male power is needed, or repairs what his mother cannot do. We never ask him to do this and always answer, but he does not listen to us, when he comes, he looks at everything, and if he notices a mess, he removes it. After drinking tea, we communicate for a long time and he leaves, for me his arrival, as a holiday and gives a charge of positive emotions for a long time.I met another person on the Internet four years ago, they communicated a lot, and they made friends, and he knew about me almost everything and I knew nothing about him besides him, and my questions, as his name did not answer, disappointed, and called, on holidays and sometimes without a reason transferred me to the account of five - ten thousand rubles. I congratulated him on giving him his books, a year ago I learned that a man was seriously ill, deadly (cancer) and he had a few days to live. This was written by his wife, for me it was a shock, and from her I learned that his name is Kobetz Valery, a bright memory, I will never forget him. I thought a lot about why suddenly there were almost no friends, maybe I was to blame for doing something wrong or offended with a word, but after a long "growing" in myself I found nothing like that. Only after talking to the same people with disabilities, as I learned that almost everyone has the same story at first thick then empty. I want to appeal to you, dear ones, if you have relatives, relatives, friends in this situation must be and visit them as often as possible, believe (tested on yourself) they live the meeting with you, they need nothing from you, only you do not forget them.
The forgotten souls
For a long time no one took the baby from the maternity department.
It happens so. They refused, and no one expressed any wishes. So, the baby stuck there and was temporarily placed on a free bed. But as you can see, he was not very pleased with it and he spoke so that his ears lay.
One day I silenced. And the frightened nurse, who ran to see what had happened to him, and was not suffocated by such a scream, was surprised to see...
She saw that a big grey cat, a common pet and a puppy was pressing to him. He just did not give himself to anyone and categorically refused to go on his hands.
Yes, of course, everyone knew that the cat in the department had nothing to do and could not do at all. But try to explain this to the cat, and to everyone who fed him. So despite all the prohibitions and threats of execution, the gray cat was like a full-time employee with the function of a psychotherapist for workers.
The nurse tried to drive the furry off the bed, but the little boy grabbed him with all his pennies, and wildly cried when they tried to separate them. The whole department ran to look at this picture, and even the strict head, scaredly blaspheming and promising to dismiss everyone, approached and struck the grey parent.
So they lay together. The cat left for a short time for his affairs and to eat, and the baby humbly waited for the return of the acquired daddy.
And then there were those who wanted to take him, but how it turned out that he was not going to leave without his four-year-old parent.
He has his tail! The adopters came.
Well, sooth - agreed sadly honey sisters. What to do? As you take it, so little it begins to roar and suffocate.
In short, the story became known outside the hospital, and in addition to all the staff who came to see, photograph and bring submissions to the furry parent, very different couples began to come.
They have long agreed to both. The cat did not want to. You can laugh, but the baby was not taken until the cat agreed to go into the hands of the new parents.
So they both took them. A man carries a cat in his arms and a woman carries a child. Everyone got what they wanted. The cat embraced the man’s legs behind his neck and placed his head on his left shoulder.
The nurses watched this picture with amazement.
The insulting and terrible chief doctor, who came out with everyone to accompany a couple, looked at it and said:
Good parents, I tell you. I know. I have five such puppets. They know who is the best.
And suddenly, realizing that he had overwhelmed the excess, he tumbled and began to mock everyone, because it is not necessary to look, but to work, the devil take.
