Imfazwe yaseUkraine kulo nyaka uphelileyo ibe nempembelelo embi kubantu abaneziphene nakwabakhulileyo. Aba bantu banokuba semngciphekweni ngakumbi ngexesha leengxabano kunye neentlekele zoluntu, njengoko besengozini yokushiywa okanye bavinjwa iinkonzo eziyimfuneko, kubandakanywa uncedo oluxhasayo. Abantu abakhubazekileyo kunye nokulimala banokuthembela kwi-teknoloji yokuncedisa (AT) ukugcina ukuzimela kunye nesidima sabo, kunye nokutya, ucoceko kunye nokhathalelo lwempilo.
Ukunceda i-Ukraine ihlangabezane nesidingo sonyango olongezelelweyo, i-WHO, ngokubambisana noMphathiswa wezeMpilo wase-Ukraine, iphumeza iprojekthi yokubonelela ngokutya okuyimfuneko kubantu abafudukayo kweli lizwe. Oku kwenziwa ngokuthengwa kunye nokuhanjiswa kweekhithi ze-AT10 ezikhethekileyo, nganye iqulethe izinto ezili-10 ezichongiweyo njengezona zifunwa kakhulu ngabantu baseUkraine kwiimeko zongxamiseko. Ezi zixhobo ziquka izixhobo zokuhamba ezifana neentonga, izitulo ezinamavili ezineephedi zokunciphisa uxinzelelo, ii-canes kunye ne-walkers, kunye neemveliso zokunyamekela komntu ezifana nesethi ye-catheter, i-incontinence absorbers, kunye nezindlu zangasese kunye nezitulo zeshawa.
Xa imfazwe yaqalisayo, uRuslana nentsapho yakhe bagqiba kwelokuba bangayi kwikhaya leenkedama elikumgangatho ongaphantsi wesakhiwo esiphakamileyo. Kunoko, bazimela kwigumbi lokuhlambela, apho maxa wambi abantwana balala khona. Isizathu sesi sigqibo kukukhubazeka konyana kaRuslana Klim oneminyaka eli-14 ubudala. Ngenxa ye-cerebral palsy kunye ne-spastic dysplasia, akakwazi ukuhamba kwaye uhlala kwisitulo esinamavili. Izinyuko ezininzi zazithintela umntwana okwishumi elivisayo ukuba angangeni kwindawo ekhuselekileyo.
Njengenxalenye yeprojekthi ye-AT10, u-Klim ufumene isitulo sangoku, esikwaziyo ukulungiswa ubude kunye nesitulo esinamavili esitsha kraca. Isitulo sakhe esinamavili sangaphambili sasindala, asifanelekanga kwaye sifuna ukulungiswa ngononophelo. “Enyanisweni, sothukile nje. Akukho ngqiqweni kwaphela,” utshilo uRuslana ngesitulo esitsha esinamavili sikaKlim. “Awuyazi ukuba bekuya kuba lula kangakanani ukuba umntwana ahambe-hamba ukuba ebenethuba kwasekuqaleni.”
I-Klim, ifumana ukuzimela, ibisoloko ibalulekile kusapho, ngakumbi kuba uRuslana wajoyina umsebenzi wakhe we-Intanethi. I-AT yenza ukuba kwenzeke kubo. URuslana wathi: “Ndazola ndisazi ukuba wayengekho ebhedini ngalo lonke ixesha. UKlim waqala wasebenzisa isitulo esinamavili esengumntwana kwaye yabutshintsha ubomi bakhe. “Uyakwazi ukuziqengqa aze ajike isitulo sakhe ukuba sijonge kuyo nayiphi na iengile. Ukwazi nokuvula indawo yokulala ukuze aye kwizinto zakhe zokudlala. Wayekwazi ukuyivula kuphela emva kweklasi yokwenza umthambo, kodwa ngoku uzenzela ngokwakhe ngoxa ndisesikolweni.” Umsebenzi. Ndabona ukuba waqalisa ukuphila ubomi obanelisayo.”
U-Ludmila ngutitshala wezibalo osele esidla umhlala-phantsi waseChernihiv oneminyaka engama-70. Nangona enengalo enye kuphela esebenzayo, uye waziqhelanisa nomsebenzi wasekhaya yaye uhlala enesimo sengqondo esifanelekileyo noburharha. “Ndifunde ukwenza okuninzi ngesandla esinye,” watsho ngokuzithemba enoncumo oluncinane ebusweni bakhe. “Ndiyakwazi ukuhlamba impahla, ukuhlamba izitya nokupheka.”
Kodwa uLyudmila wayesahambahamba ngaphandle kwenkxaso yosapho lwakhe ngaphambi kokuba afumane isitulo esinamavili kwisibhedlele sasekhaya njengenxalenye yeprojekthi ye-AT10. “Ndihlala ekhaya okanye ndihleli kwisitulo esingaphandle kwendlu yam, kodwa ngoku ndiyakwazi ukuphuma ndiye esixekweni ndithethe nabantu,” utshilo. Uyavuya kuba imozulu iye yaphucuka kwaye uyakwazi ukukhwela isitulo esinamavili ukuya kwindawo ahlala kuyo, efikeleleka ngakumbi kunendawo ahlala kuyo esixekweni. U-Ludmila ukwakhankanya izibonelelo zesitulo sakhe esitsha seshawa, esikhuseleke ngakumbi kwaye sikhululeke ngakumbi kunesitulo sasekhitshini samaplanga awayesisebenzisa ngaphambili.
I-AT yayinempembelelo enkulu kumgangatho wobomi bukatitshala, nto leyo eyayimvumela ukuba aphile ngokuzimela nangokukhululeka. “Ewe, usapho lwam lonwabile kwaye ubomi bam buye balula,” utshilo.
