Today the two of them: Sergei and Graham were discharged from the orthopedic clinic in Minsk. The mini van has come to collect them and bring them back to Ivenets school where Sergei will stay another month until he goes back to the clinic to have the casts removed.

Last two days (or better say) two nights were the most difficult for Graham as a carer, because after the operation the child was a bit disturbed, but the nursing staff was there to help the boy to relief the pain. Graham was very happy to hear that Sergei did very well, even better than the doctors expected, that’s why they had very short time in the hospital.

Needless to say that all the people in the hospital: doctors, nurses, nursing assistants and the mothers that accompany their children in the hospital were very nice to little boy Sergei and sure to Graham, the one (as they said) that is more than a father to a child.

Amazing was the fact that everyone said thank you to Graham for looking after Sergei, because it’s so rare in Belarus that someone strange is so fond of a child to take such a good care of him. They couldn’t believe that a young lad from a foreign country could come and do this for the little boy. They all say thanks on behalf of the people who genuinely care.

Now we are wishing good luck to Graham in Ivenets school!
