The woman dreamed of adopting a child and giving him a real family.
Nicky had a wonderful family – a loving husband and a wonderful daughter from her first marriage.
But the woman did not leave the thought, firmly planted in her head since childhood. Nicky dreamed of adopting a child and giving him a real family, love and care.
Nicky’s husband supported her, and they both came to the conclusion that they would take the child from the orphanage. They looked at many profiles, but settled on a boy who had no chance of being adopted.
Rustam was born with a huge number of malformations. And seeing such a son, his mother abandoned him. She herself was to blame for this, because throughout her pregnancy she led an unhealthy lifestyle.
The boy had congenital facial features, he could not eat on his own, so he was fed through a tube. In addition, Rustam did not speak at all and lagged behind in development.
The child was born with one leg. Doctors did everything possible to restore the boy’s face.
Nicki admitted that when she first saw the child, she was not afraid. She immediately began to think about how she and her husband could help him.
“For a second, the thought “What have we done?” flashed, and then I again began to think practically – after all, there was so much to do …” – said Nicky.
Exactly one year has passed since the adoption. Parents taught their son to first walk on crutches, and then on a prosthesis. The child has a lot of work with a speech therapist, and now his speech can be well understood by others.
Nicky says that at first, the people around him and the children were wary of Rustam and laughed at him. They were afraid to play with him on the same playground and shunned the unusual boy.
At some point, Nicky decided to create an Instagram account and tell the world about her son.
She began to upload her photos and share interesting moments from her life.
Rustam’s page quickly became popular. The media became interested in the boy’s story, and Nicky and his son began to be invited to various television programs.
Nicky teaches her son not to be ashamed of his appearance and tries to explain to him that the main thing in a person is the soul.
Rustam has a lot of work ahead, but his loving family will always be there and will always support him.
“He is our happiness”, Nicky says about his beloved boy.
