"Маленький Коля скончался. Но он был настоящим бойцом", - пишет ирландка Adi Roche, основатель международной благотворительной организации "Chernobyl Children International". Самоотверженные волонтёры продолжают бороться за жизнь детей, отравленный последствиями взрыва на Чернобыльской АЭС.
Коля очень любил слушать музыку. Он будет похоронен на кладбище Веснова. "Пусть его душа покоится по правую руку Бога", - пишет Ади.
Dear Friend
It is with a very heavy heart that I let you know about nine-year-old Kolia, who sadly passed away in our care this weekend. We are deeply upset by Kolia's death, he was a beautiful little boy who brought a ray of sunshine into our lives despite the suffering he endured throughout his too-short life. Kolia died as a result of severe seizures and he was a brave fighter until the very end.
I last saw Kolia in February on a trip to Vesnova with the international Rose of Tralee Maria Walsh and a group of Rose of Tralee finalists. Kolia loved nothing more than listening to music, and the Roses brightened up his days with sweet melodies and tuneful songs.
Kolia will be laid to rest in Vesnova cemetery today where he will be at peace with all of our other little angels.
May he rest in peace. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam dílis. (May his soul rest at God's right hand).
