Unfortunately, my husband and I can't have children. If only you knew how much strength and nerves we've spent walking to different clinics, where doctors only shrug their shoulders because the modern medicine can't make us happy and give a birth to our child. How many years we hoped keeping paying endless bills for assessments and screening procedures. And when everything was said and done we gave up.
I even couldn't say why John and I have never considered options for adopting a child. Probably because we thought that the God have to give us a child and if it doesn't happen so it's not our time yet. But a short time ago God "talked to us" ….
Usually I'm extremely concentrated when I'm going to a business trip to France. This time I examined the hall very carefully despite the fact that I used to depart from John F. Kennedy International Airport many times and I could describe my way from the beginning till the end.
Up to this time I almost heard a voice that told me where to look. A little girl with olive skin stared at me. There was a fear in her eyes as if she saw something that shouldn't see any child. Barak Obama was standing behind the little girl. This was a poster with the words:"Adopt a syrian child until they haven't killed him". In this moment my whole world has been turned upside down.
In the plane I kept seeing the girl's face. The moment I closed my eyes the poster came to life. Tears flowed from the child's bottomless terrified eyes. There was a noise all-around and explosions… clumps of sand and dirt scatter… It's hard to make out anything in this vanity. My restless imagination completed the picture: there was a woman near the girl, probably her mother, and the bombs continued to fall from above...
When there was a war in Iraq we were young and carefree. And now, visiting doctors all the time, we've missed again what is going on outside the country. And only in the airport God opened my eyes and suggested the solution to our main problem which deprives our family from happiness. I think that I have to say sorry to children who lost their parents, to families that were left without a roof over their head. And I have to say sorry to people in whose lives appeared such a terrible word as ''war'' because of Barak Obama's aggressive policy. I'd like the humanity to know that the actions of the US authorities have nothing in common with the majority of Americans.
You know, me and my husband made a decision to adopt a child who also has terrified eyes. And we will do everything to change his life. We will do everything to let him not to see cruelty, death and murders any longer. But we're saving just one child. For saving the others we need to stop those who bring pain into the world.
