"Crystal Boy" Sasha Pushkarev: biography. History of adoption

It turns out that life can be learned to love. Even without paying any attention to the fact that in this world a person suddenly for some strange reason came to be disabled. And trying not to worry about the fact that he absolutely does not need his parents. Confirmation of this opinion can serve as a "crystal boy" Sasha Pushkarev, whose biography has absorbed pain, disappointment, hope for the best and fulfillment of the most cherished desires.

The beginning of the life path

Little Sasha was born with a very serious, uncontrollable disease. The child had a so-called crystal disease, that is, increased fragility of bones. Doctors define it as an imperfect osteogenesis. Each bone in his body was so fragile that it could break down due to the slightest strain or load.

"The Crystal Boy" Sasha Pushkarev, whose biography is an amazing example of love of life, was born in a dysfunctional family. His parents always drank, could often disperse and converge again. This continued until their divorce.

"I'm not like others"

Almost the only entertainment of the child was sitting by the window in anticipation of the mother. One day he was very much frightened for her, when one of the drinking companions who periodically came to their house almost killed her with a lamp. Then he greatly regretted that he was so weak and could not protect his mother. So lived in his childhood a little Sasha Pushkarev, a "crystal boy". Biography of his early years is not distinguished by some happy, pleasant impressions or memories. But he realized very early that there was a huge chasm between him and the other courtyard children.

Mother and father of the boy were deprived of parental rights for drunkenness. They did not care whether their son was hungry or fed, warmly dressed or not, sick or healthy.

Outdoor Games

Sometimes Sasha was brought to the sandbox so that he could talk with other kids. But this almost never happened: the children quickly ran away wherever. They were frightened of a strange boy who was so unlike them, because Sasha was much lower than each of the guys (his height stopped about 50 centimeters), he could not walk - he just crawled. They were bored with him, because it is impossible to play in salicy, neither in hide and seek, nor in football.

Hospital sketches

A lot of time in his childhood, the "crystal boy" Sasha Pushkarev, whose biography the first years of his life was not very happy, spent in the hospital. He practically lived there, because there were many cases when the baby "broke down". Sasha was so fragile that he only had to slip a shirt or shirt or slip on his socks - everything: the arm or leg could be injured.

One day a boy, sitting in a snowy winter house on the windowsill, watched the children mold a snowman in the yard. Mother returned home drunk. She pushed the child away, wanting to drag him away from the window. She made it so rude that the son fell on the bed, jumped on it like an inflatable ball, and hit the floor. Even after many years, remembering this case, the guy smiles, despite the fact that this story from childhood is still quite sad.

"Serve the crystal boy!"

But in childhood there were days and more lightly when the sobering parents took their son with them to take a walk to the local church. Most of the parishioners tried to voraciously give alms to the boy with sad eyes.

Thanks to an incomprehensible accident, a huge soul settled in a fragile body. Sasha Pushkarev tried at the time not to think about the fact that his beloved parents use him as a means to raise money for an alcoholic beverage. True, sometimes they remembered about his son, buying him a serving of ice cream. And only when Sasha was 10 years old, they were finally deprived of parental rights. His own father died in 2007. At this time, the boy is transported to the nearest boarding house, intended for handicapped children, who was in Nizhny Lomov. There he spent the next five years of his life.

New lessons in Sasha's life

In this boarding school there was one simple rule, which educators teach all newly arrived children. Now the newcomer will live by him. It is simple enough, but very useful: the stronger always needs to help the weak.

"The Crystal Boy" Sasha Pushkarev, whose biography from that moment began to gradually change for the better, first felt a little frightened at seeing so many sick children in one room. He absolutely did not know how to behave. But then everything settled. Soon a sociable, kind and clever boy had many friends. He read the Gospel to them and sang prayers. Several years ago, when he lived with his parents, Father Mikhail taught him from the Trinity Church.

Star Screen

Sasha already celebrated his fourteen years, when "First Channel" decided to shoot a documentary about Nizhnelomovsky boarding school. The authors called the tape "The Crystal Boy" in honor of the main hero Sasha. On air, it was shown almost 10 years ago - in 2006 on December 12. The film, very touching and kind, could not leave indifferent and Valentina Dvoinishnikova living with her family in the village of Polazna, which is located 45 kilometers from Perm. Only the first frames of the documentary tape appeared on the screen, and the woman realized that this courageous boy would become her son. Yes-yes, it was all the same fragile Sasha, who did not break. The history of the "crystal boy" shocked all viewers to the core.

Valentina immediately felt that this was her child. She was so sympathetic to him that at such a young age he had already suffered so much. The woman understood: if she does not take him to her family in the near future, at the age of 18 the boy will be sent to the Nursing Home. First, Valentina's husband and her children - 24-year-old son Oleg and 18-year-old daughter Vika - did not even want to think about it. But she was sure that as soon as they get acquainted with Sasha, they will immediately change their minds.

Very quickly she managed to find the telephone number of the boarding school. Valentina talked to the director, who told that the boy had Ellis-van Creveld's syndrome, the child is very sick. She suggested that a potential mother should think well before making such a radical decision. Valentina did not give up and asked to invite a boy to the phone. Mom Sasha began to call Valentine, when they spoke only the second time. She easily managed to persuade her husband to go with her to Nizhny Lomov. At the first meeting, Anatoly immediately agreed with the decision of his wife. And then there began an endless journey through the offices of different officials.

Walking in pain ... with a happy ending

"Crystal Boy" Sasha Pushkarev met with his mother from Penza only a few years later. A foster parents to collect it in their family, had to collect and send to different instances of more than forty certificates. And each time was spent an incredible amount of effort and nerves. Valentina practically gnawed out every document. And only because of its endurance, perseverance and strong-willed nature, the process was completed in a short time.

So "The crystal boy" from Kamenka was adopted by Perm. Parents are still surprised that in the few years that Sasha is a member of the family of the Dvoinishnikovs, no one has ever come to check the conditions of his life from social services. Lost or uninteresting? But many ordinary people try to find out more about the life of the guy. Often they are interested in how many years the "crystal boy"? When the film was filmed, he was 14. Consequently, now - for 20. In the family of the Dvoynishnikovs everything goes on as usual. They have already learned to yield to each other and not argue over trifles. So, life goes on!
