It is difficult to live blind in the country of deaf persons.
It is difficult to live blind in the country of deaf persons.
In our country annually, from December, 3rd till December, 12th, it is spent
Decade of invalids. But a life of the invalid as practice has shown,
Decade it is not limited. What is this a life?
Beethoven wrote last, most significant products
Deaf person. Roosevelt has deduced America from great depression, not
Rising from an invalid armchair. To all world it is known completely
Paralysed, deprived of high-grade speech, sight, hearing, but
Become to outstanding scientist Hokking, whose computer lectures about
Laws of astrophysics and the universe future listen to the American
Presidents and congressmen. As speak in Sweden, there is no such
Concepts the person-invalid, are a society-invalid, at which
Ladders too high, and doors too narrow that could
To pass all. So it for the country such where solve whose
It is more important than a problem, - deaf persons or spinalnikov. Where day of the blind
Day of invalids - is marked on December, 3rd on November, 13th, and. Where it is identical
Armless and legless military invalids-pensioners divide on
Participants of the Great Patriotic War and victims in
"Local conflicts".
And in
The answer - the silence About it has not written any newspaper, has not told
One channel of TV: the Civil forum which has passed in Moscow with
Speeches about the state, about a civic duty and civil
Advantage, about love to near and the help to the cripple, has ended
At all how organizers assumed. When all warm and
Remedial speeches have been said, to the orchestra first rows
The state Kremlin palace the person in the invalid has left
To carriage also has told:
- Anybody and never so did not humiliate my civil
Advantages, as at this forum... Such here, out of the program,
Jury Bausova's concluding remarks, the chairman of Association
The youth organisations of invalids. Them have invited as though on
To principle: solid action, like it is necessary to call invalids also.
Invalids have arrived from all country. Blind have brought by buses with
Lifts. And koljasochniki reached to the Kremlin who as could.
Then, having passed through a system of the militiamen who are doing not wish first
To start up legless in "capital heart", protiskivali the carriages
Through the Kremlin turnstiles. Then on ice and a cold, in lungs
sviterochkah searched at least for ramps before doors of the hospitable
Forum. They and had to clamber on a ladder of the main palace
The countries, asking the help at strangers. And for deaf-mutes have forgotten
To invite the signer. Therefore Valentina Matvienko, which
Made prosensual speech to Russians, for a separate part
These Russians, it turns out, only opened a mouth. In completion
In total invalids have tired out on balconies. To descend in a toilet,
To eat, to take a breath of air. But the press of it has not seen. To It
Under each leaf the buffet table was ready. Also has not heard. Because
Nobody has heard, even those to whom it was necessary. Invalids a note
Asked to approach to them of the manager or the organizer of it
Bravura civil show. But anybody and has not approached.
Hey, respected! Who you which so it is sweet spoke from a scene about
The volume, that better luck next time, but and has not apologised before those, at
Whom this lump across a throat became burning insult? And what kind
The person has thought up to invite legless children to a round table
Civil forum in the Ministry of Labour and social development.
He, which has written in the press release: "the Purpose - to define ways
Decisions of a problem of integration of invalids in a modern society ",
Has at least counted quantity of steps before a door in this
Institution. Twelve! Above for koljasochnika - only mountains. "Here
The advanced part of a society "was going to, - assured the acting. But
If such neglect is shown by an advanced part,
Legal experts what the invalid to be integrated into the unadvanced?
If someone thinks, that it is a question of a separate category of citizens,
As at us like to be expressed, here figure: it almost eleven
Millions persons. That is the tenth part all of us - Russians.
The tenth part cannot use the constitutional
The rights. For example, the right to a freedom of movement, to a place choice
Residence. A right to rest, on work, on health protection, on...
Life if to mean not zoological existence.
Cautiously, doors are closed I Offer this decade to volunteers
To carry out the action: "I am an invalid". You have risen in the morning, clean bed
One hand. Prepare blindly a sandwich and, having switched on the TV,
Switch off a sound. And look.
As now to you it will be interesting to "invalid" to learn, that it is accepted
Weight of laws and programs - from the Federal law on invalids to
The Moscow law "About unimpeded access maintenance
Invalids to objects social, transport, engineering
Infrastructures ". But, as Jury Mihajlovich Luzhkov has told,
To carry out it hurries up nobody. How much programs accept, and
Houses in capital both were under construction without ramps, and are under construction. As
Buses with high floors though for a long time already is with were bought
Low, convenient also for children and old men, and are bought.
As did in streets borders without congresses, and do, and even
Above a steel. Besides, that "there" is not only congresses with
Sidewalks, but also indexes where the invalid can find them, at us for
Inactive Muscovites movement on a city - present
Problem. And after all in one only to capital now live more
One million invalids that makes about 18 percent from
The general number of Muscovites. From them over 180 thousand, that is everyone
The fifth, able-bodied age and 29,7 thousand - children-invalids. But
From 27 thousand Moscow houses are adapted for invalids only
99. From 159 hotels only two (!) are equipped by the special
Ramps and handrail. From four hundred large trading objects for
Invalids fifty are accessible. If the invalid was going to in
Hairdressing salon or on football just right to shout "sentry!". Do not wait
It in the Bolshoi theatre. Do not thirst to see in the mayoralty is a building
It is not adapted absolutely not that to stately ears could
To make the way even the most desperate koljasochnik. For a city in an electric train
To get out in an invalid armchair too it is practically impossible. Unless
Only in platform and not in a summer season. From 138 establishments of the household
Service "koljasochnik" can get only to one! And road in
Sports establishments to it in general it is closed.
The project of the new complex program of rehabilitation
Muscovites-invalids for 2001-2003 has pulled on four billion
125,5 million roubles. And a question on free movement
Invalids on a city it was developed separately within a month. Well
And where city buses and fixed-route taxis with spetspodemnikami,
About which the chairman of Committee of social protection spoke
The population Igor Syrnikov. "In Moscow there can be special
Routes on which buses will ply with
Adaptations for invalids ". What have not appeared - could not?
While invalids-Muscovites can move only on seven
The equipped buses. It almost that anything. Absurdity of the big
Cities: in him there is a centre of means of rehabilitation
Invalids where do individual adaptations from carriages to
vydavlivatelja a tooth-paste. But, unfortunately, the address help
To patients it is complicated by that to invalids from distant areas
Moscow suburbs and other cities difficultly to the centre to reach. And
Branches are not present. - But the most terrible test for spinalnika not
Distance, - has told somehow Igorek Smiths that in
To group with Matveem SHparo and Boris Smolinym has subdued Greenland. In
Last year "the Parliamentary newspaper" wrote about them: for the first time the ice
The dome of the biggest island of a planet was crossed by the command of Russians.
One of them - in an invalid carriage. Then, already in Moscow, before
Departure to the Barnaul, Igor to us has told: - the Invalid for
Last years I felt only - in the Moscow underground. It
Forty days were overcome by a cold, a wind, snow thresholds, abrupt
Descents and liftings, making a start from an ice ice crust ski sticks:
One push - one metre of a way. Muscles kameneli in the morning. However it
Moved as a member of the command, but without its help. And having gone down in
Capital underground, could not without extraneous participation
To "jump" porozhek between station and the car, to drive on
To the escalator to overcome a glass door which is constant
It is closed before the invalid. To subdue the Moscow underground Igor so
Also could not and has left to Altai only the national hero of Greenland.
This year koljasochniki successfully stormed Elbrus. But,
It appears, to clamber on steep rocks and to climb up in
The bus of the city message - completely not same.
"You spoil to us a picture" Like at us words not clear - type
"Rehabilitation". At known traveller Dmitry Shparo is
The whole program of job with invalids. But to explain to us,
To journalists, what is it such, it has planted us and the command of deaf-mutes
Children on catamarans also has started up downwards on one of zagogulistyh,
Rapids small rivers of Kareliya. With disembarkation to a desert island, without
Special provisions and superfluous subjects. It was necessary to eat from one
Kettle. To sleep, as spoons in buffet that was warmer.
kuchkovatsja at one fire. At deaf-mutes the sign language, but,
When on a fire our socks burnt, we equally screamed from
Disappointment. And in eight days we communicated among themselves enough
Simply also have learnt even to swear sign language translation. As a result
That the conclusion has been drawn: it is just necessary to be closer. And only. And
More close it is impossible. - you spoil to us a picture, - have responded
To invalids in sanatorium when they have submitted demands for rest of the.
Blind and koljasochniki - a show not for having a rest,
reabilitirujushchihsja after labour year. For the same reason from
Aether of the state television channels sign language translation has disappeared.
- We live in information vacuum, - the president speaks
The All-Russia society of deaf persons Victor Smaltser. - There are no newspapers and
Magazines about invalids. Though is for invalids. But it - not a thread
With a society. To the deaf-mute not dokrichatsja if to it are not turned
The person, is I now precisely I know. He can "tell" something,
Only if will pull a cord when you are connected by one rope,
Or, having touched for a shoulder. But the President, the government, the Duma for a shoulder
You will not touch. And then for deaf-mutes speak the blind. - we have gone through
Great crisis, to go through now well-being. It would Seem, well
Here now it becomes easier that to whom all was very difficult these
Years. But the course of the state financial policy - is better for
Than people with high incomes, is worse - for those who hardly reduces the ends with
The ends, - the deputy of the State Duma Oleg Smolin speaks. - Also there is an obvious
The tendency to reduction of privileges for invalids. I of other such country
I do not know, where cancellation of tax privileges poor and sick
Compensate those indulgences which appear healthy and
The rich. It is a payment for those of 13 percent which now pay all
And with which we so are proud?! Then it is terrible. Last
The tax code deprives of privileges under enterprise taxes, where
Invalids work. It is possible to predict: now remains a little
The competitive enterprises of invalids. Why this code
Has passed all readings? Minister of Finance Kudrin promised, that to the third
This awful amendment will be compensated code reading. But,
Probably, "has forgotten". Just adjusted manufactures where work
Invalids, can disappear and consequently, that, having cancelled taxes,
The state has not fulfilled even the promise to define the state order
For these enterprises.
What can they, except how to stamp a pin? From sockets to
House noodles - production of shops for invalids. I will tell only one:
In many engines of domestic cars there are motors, details to
By which do the blind. It is quality top. Because hands
The person blind sharply feel that eyes and not
You will define. These are unique, even phenomenal abilities,
Which practically are not realised in the world able to see. It is cheap,
Because the salary of the invalid on the average - six hundred roubles. But also
It, it is visible, it is too a pity to someone. To push out the invalid on pension -
To equivalently what to give out the grant for burial. We will continue
The action "I am an invalid": now we will try to live month on pension
"Afghan" of 628 roubles. At a living wage 720. That is
Cut down a refrigerator, cover the TV - at you they are not present. It
Too big luxury. Forget about fish, meat, eggs... The Package
The milk, two potatoes and three candies in day - here your diet.
Cannot month - hold on at least decade. That, which
Takes away a society for itself to hear and see invalids.
I assure you, in a week you will pray for one: upasi me,
My God, to appear blind either deaf, or legless in the country
slepogluhonemyh.
Inna SUPRUNOVA.
