The Child Protective Services Take Away Children From Handicapped Women

Hello dear Steemians! I have already written in my posts about how unprotected people are in my country and also the countries of the former USSR. ( I live in Ukraine) When people turn to the state and try to get some help from it, they doom themselves to be victims of cold-blooded officials. The state hunts for the weak and defenseless trying to get a profit out of it. This is what happened in Natalia`s story. Natalia is a talented artist. She also has a prestigious profession: she graduated from the University of Economics and Entrepreneurship. But Natalia is handicapped and that is why the representatives of the state encroached on the most precious things in the life of every woman - her children. Now I will tell you about everything in details. 

This story took place in Russia a few years ago. When Natasha was 17, she injured her leg but she did not pay any attention to pain in the joint. She turned to the doctors when it was too late - a malignant tumor developed in the bone. It was lost a lot of precious time before the girl got to the Blokhin Cancer Center on the Kashirskoye highway. By that time, besides her sarcoma, she was diagnosed with a brain tumor. After nine courses of chemotherapy and several operations, the process was stopped. The doctors even started talking about recovery. 

At the request of doctors Natasha began to consult the patients of the cancer center as a psychologist. Soon there, in the oncological center, she was offered a regular job. Everything went fine until one day the mother of the girl needed an urgent operation. There was no enough money for it and Natalia  began to donate blood to earn at least a few rubles. After that her immune system was suppressed and as a result the prosthesis was infected. Later she had a few new operations and a complete replacement of the left femur.

Despite her illness, Natalia worked, led an active lifestyle, and finally met her love. The man proposed to her but the woman refused to register the marriage. She did not want to burden her loved one with her illness. Soon a miracle happened: after cancer, chemotherapy, a huge number of drugs, she got pregnant. The doctors advised her to abort the pregnancy. They said that the endoprosthesis would not withstand the load. However, the instinct of motherhood was stronger and Natalia gave birth to a healthy girl, who named Victoria. It was her life victory. But suddenly a misfortune happened. Natalia was infected with staphylococcus aureus in the maternity hospital. As a result, the endoprosthesis replacing her joint was infected too. She was operated again. It was the 20-th operation since the onset of the disease. At some point, the question arose about amputation. This involved a long stay in the hospital. Then, having been spurred by a sense of desperation, the woman decided to turn for help to the social services of her town Podolsk. But they responded briefly: in case of amputation, she will be declared incompetent, and after that the child protective services will take away her child. They did not offer any help - neither material nor moral. She was also refused in the help of a social worker. It was a big stress for Natalia. She immediately came to the oncological center. The woman explained that in case of amputation,  life without a child would lose its meaning for her. Doctors went to an incredible risk - did the incredible and installed a new endoprosthesis. Natasha thought that her life started again. 

But  a year later she gave birth to her second daughter. Natalia is a religious person and could not abort her child. The pregnancy was not easy - shortly before her second daughter`s birth, the father of her children met another woman. She was healthy and very wealthy. The birthday of Natalia`s second daughter coincided with her father`s wedding day with a local businesswoman. 

Natalia is totally alone now. She has nobody in this world except her little children and an old mother who is 82 years old. Natasha does not turn to social services anymore: she is afraid that the child protective services will take away her children. This thought became a nighmare for her. That is why 4 people-Natalia, her mother and two little children live in a dilapidated building of 17 square metres. The 82 -years-old woman sleeps on the floor. Natalia gets some help from friends and just not indifferent people from Podolsk. 

Natalia with her daughter

This story touched me a lot. I think Natalia is a very strong woman and she deserves respect not only from her countrymen but also from the state. It had to help that woman but what did it do? The social services began to threaten to take the children from Natalia. I find it ridiculous. The woman is handicapped and it is the duty of social services to take care of her. Natalia can`t sleep now because she constantly imagines how the guardianship service takes away her children. The woman paid a too high price for the birth of her kids and she loves them immensely. I just hope that one day this situation will change for the better for Natalia because she lives in  constant fear now.

Governments around the world,
are using "Child Protection Agencies"
to take children away from loving families
and place them in foster care or group homes
or put up for adoption.

THESE FAMILIES NEED PROTECTING.
Thank-you @kristinaljfom for supporting @familyprotection

Natalia is such a brave young woman, who is trying as hard as she can build her life and live and provide for her babies and mother.
I can't believe the hardship she had to go through and still can't just live and enjoy her life because of her fears.
It breaks my heart, how cruel social services are especially to these poor people who don't know how to fight or can fight back or even escape from this nightmare.

Thank you for sharing this story and supporting the @familyprotection because this is the first time I see a project that is fighting back against this terrible social services system.

Thank you for such a great comment, @familyprotection is a wonderful community of kind people that helps so many people.

That brings tears to my eyes. To know that Natalia would fight so much for her children despite the obstacles that she faces. And yet the state just wanted to make it even harder. No compassion, no love, Those folks who have made it hard for Natalia will have to pay one day for their actions. They will give an account to God for the hell they put her through. Yes It is a heart breaking story yet a story of love. We need to lift her up in our prayers. Who ever reads this please say a prayer for Natalia and her family. Thanks.

Thank you so much for such words, you have a very kind heart.

Family is the most important thing in the world. If you do not have a family, consider that you have nothing. Family - this is the most lasting bond of your life. I liked your post

I agree that family is the most important thing and it is sad that a state does not help families to unite but ruins them.

@ kristinaljfom, eдинственный момент который я не поняла, люди с опухолями даже после лечения не могут быть донорами крови, никто не будет у них принимать кровь. Наверное в статье какая-то ошибка

Эта информация во всех статьях касательно этого случая, могу скинуть ссылки, там маленький городок, может у них не такие строгие правила.

The history of Nathalia inspires us the hope , the love, and above all the will. But also the atrocity of the institutions responsible for the protection of children. By their laws they contribute to the destruction of families instead of helping them. I hope Nathalia finds a way to keep her kids with her. I thank you @kristinaljfom for taking an interest in this type of problem. Your efforts and investigations deserve to be rewarded. Have a great day my dear

Thank you for kind words my dear friend.)

she deserves respect not only from her countrymen but also from the state.

The state only wants more power..always.. over people lives.
The smaller the state, the free-er - and happier - people are.

The state is an evil that the people have been fooled into believing that it is a benevolent entity.

This social service interventionist policy is going on, in all countries...

You are totally right, I totally agree with you that the state is an evil.

I think Natalia is a very strong woman, who fights not only for her life and health, but also for the well-being of her children. It is good , that there are caring people, who help her. I really want this story to end well.

Спасибо за комментарий, будем верить в лучшее.

I pray God will intervane to Natalia situation and she will live to witness the growth of those children she is indeed a strong woman. Social works will be very heartless to take her children away from her because she has pay a huge price to give those children life. In other to save her from her fear i hope the community should raise to her help by empowering and attending to her health problem. If she keeps leaving in constant fear it will deteriorate her health which is very dangerous. Well done for the report @kristinaljfom

The story is heart wrenching but what is the real name of the woman? Natalia or Natasha? Get that checked and corrected because this adds discrepancy to your story.

Thank you for sharing!

To create a family enough to love. And to save - you need to learn to tolerate and forgive. I liked your post.

nice

I see nothing nice in this post, it is sad you even have not read it.

I find her story to be incredibly courageous for all that she has faced. Yes it is sad that she has to face those challenges on her own. I clicked on the headline because it sounded like she had her children taken, luckily for her she has not. I think the headline is a bit misleading it should have read that they can or could take the children away. I find fault with the assumption that all liability should fall to the shoulders of social services and fellow countrymen. The liability of fathers should be first and foremost to financially take care of their offspring in payments of child support, maybe they don't have such a system, if not one should be implemented to take some of the strain off her, her fellow countrymen and social service agencies.

This story is really very inspiring for me ..thanks @ kritinaljfom ..
