We looked for Mary in the Association of Associations of Disabled People on Bezrukova Street two days before we appreciated her. After smaller one – direction motels and bans, we found the perfect parking space on a hot road. Fortunately, the educational and rehabilitation centers run by the association are an oasis of peace in the desired shade. We came as a call. There is a cheerful yard and 30 clients are celebrated. Music plays in the dance and we in the blue tartars act as an ordered attraction. The staff of the center are trying to get a fly-by for Mary, but it didn’t work out today.
We reached Maria at the Education and Rehabilitation Centre in Trencin for the second time. She seemed fragile, but in fact she was a strong and incredibly self-sacrificing woman. The award was delighted. When photographing, the ERC’s delegates assisted one of them, while the other photographed. Mary was a nurse, but she decided to continue to study and to help even more.
He wants to appreciate Mirka, who is self-sacrificingly helping her volunteer at the center despite being deaf himself.
