Clara

20/01/2014 - 19 Shvat 5774

Clara was born in Bryansk. Her back spasms began at birth. As it turned out, it was a birth injury. She always forced herself to portray her image as if she had a graceful posture. Therefore, few paid attention

to the slight curvature of her spine. Then - the war, evacuation, severe hardships of postwar years occurred. After the beginning of perestroika, Clara Markovna moved to live with her brother in Moscow. She was already retired, but life in Bryansk became impossible. Her brother soon died, and she was left completely alone. She relied on the income from odd jobs she did, as well as from renting rooms in her house, until she celebrated her the 70 birthday. Then her back pain became excruciating, and caused a hump and deformation of the chest, which led to the deformation of her lungs. This was followed by new diseases: hypertension, cardiac arrhythmia, and dysfunction of the gastrointestinal tract. She was no longer independent, and was unable to go out of the house. These last 10 years, she relies solely on Chamah. Attention and care is given to her, the supervisor and health visitors have done their job: Clara Markovna is well-groomed, fed, and is provided with the necessary medication. "Chamah granted me these ten years of life" - She says thankfully.
