What did Velezheva's sister die from? Lydia Velezheva blames herself for her sister's death
“With the accumulation of experience - both everyday and professional, I am convinced that my profession found me a long time ago, I just did not realize this until some time. My fate so happened that at 38 years of my life, my mother confronted me with the fact that she had adopted me. At the age of four, it is excusable for a child not to remember his past, but memory sometimes reveals strange pictures - endless hospital corridors. My health at the age of four was already on the verge of life and death - a bunch of serious diseases, dystrophy. I have associations with the hospital since childhood - melancholy and loneliness. My today's mother and grandmother literally brought me back from the other world. I grew up and got healthier. As a patient, I did not go to the hospital until I was eighteen years old. I graduated from school, classmates talked about future professions, and I didn’t even know where to go.
But it so happened that after the tenth grade, I decided to earn some money in the summer and got a job as a nurse in a hemodialysis room. She worked for a whole year. Now I remember my energy and fearlessness - nothing frightened me, and the time was not easy. I was not afraid of work. Often nurses said: “Yes, you need to study to be a nurse, you go to medical school.” So I did - I entered the school and realized from the first lectures that this was mine.
Fate brought me to the Department of Neurosurgery of the Regional Clinical Hospital of Khanty-Mansiysk. I already knew the details of my adoption. Relatives told me the story of my biological mother - she drank all her life and at the age of forty she got hit by a car - a severe traumatic brain injury, a long recovery. She lived another ten years after the accident. If not for alcohol, maybe her life would be longer.
Often in our department we have people with similar diagnoses, there are people without a fixed place of residence. We take care of them, we are looking for relatives with the whole department, we ourselves bring things to send them home. Unfortunately, it is rarely possible to trace their further fate. But there was a patient in my life who was re-admitted to our department, and I, realizing that he could still be saved, decided to help him get home. The man himself believed that since his documents were lost, my idea was unthinkable and unpromising. The patient was from Belarus. After the operation, he was discharged, it was summer, and my husband and I settled him in a dacha with friends while we were doing his papers. A series of acquaintances and various calls took almost a month to complete. And finally, they put this man on a train and sent him home.…. What were my surprise and joy when I New Year received a letter from Belarus from a patient. He and his wife thanked for the help and wished health!
Now, remembering such stories from your life, you think that the main thing is not to give up, not to give up and believe in success. But a lot also depends on the people who are next to you in a hopeless situation. And my role in the lives of such patients is to participate not only in physical recovery, but also to let them remember that you are still a person. And always before my eyes the fate of my unlucky parents. I think if life has left me in this world, then I'm needed here. I am a nurse - a sister of mercy - that's what they called us once, but over time this phrase disappeared, got lost.
I try to adhere to the principle - treat people the way you would like to be treated in the proposed circumstances. When you hear words of gratitude addressed to you, you see the sincere kind looks of patients, you understand that it means that I do not live in vain. This is the biggest reward and the result of your work. Nursing is a profession that I am proud of because I know that people need me. I really wanted there to be more people who are not indifferent, and not to become stale with my soul. And my work, daily communication with people helps me in this.

A year later she was offered leading role in children's film"Expectation".Lydia's career has developed successfully. The actress was in demand even in the nineties, when the cinema was in decline. Irina's fate was much more difficult. Elder sister Lydia, at the age of 16, married unsuccessfully and soon began to abuse alcohol. “She didn’t enter any institute, she said:“ Lead, I won’t pass. I can’t help myself,” Velezheva recalls bitterly.
The actress recalls that relatives tried to support Irina: “Mom always helped her, all the dowry remained with Ira. Further fate She became sad, she became addicted to alcohol. No, she was not, of course, an alcoholic, but she somehow lost her interest in life. I talked to her many times, she even hid from me. I analyzed everything, I was always a defender, an intercessor for her.
Lydia noted that at first her sister rejoiced at her successes, but then they began to move away. Eight years ago, Irina died suddenly: “At 43, she died - I remember that day. My stepfather called me and said that Ira was no more.I did not immediately understand what he was talking about. My stepfather cried, asked me to help and come as soon as possible. When Ira died, she did not have a passport - she lost it, so she was taken away as a homeless person. I arrived in Kyiv and did not know in which morgue to look for her. The worst thing is to tell my mother that Ira is not there, and tomorrow the funeral, ”Lydia said in tears.
"He will be my husband," I realized when I saw famous actor. Today they are considered one of the strongest pairs of our cinema. Together they have been together for over 30 years, raised two sons, and recently became grandparents. Lydia's life is not only star roles, success and red carpets where she shines with her husband.

The actress admitted that fate often brought her to people who were to play an important role in her life. On the set of "Waiting", actor Yuri Katin-Yartsev approached Lydia's mother, who said that Lydia should enter the Shchukin school.

In General's Makhrushina's house, people get up late. Even the servants allow themselves the luxury of getting up no earlier than eight o'clock. Therefore, when the big bronze clock, in the form of a galloping knight, struck six on the fireplace in the living room, people are still sleeping in a huge, luxuriously furnished manor's apartment with a strong sweet morning sleep.
Only in the far room, located at the very end of the corridor, - in "Nyuta's cell", as it is called by the family, is some life observed.
An electric lamp, under a lampshade, in the corner, illuminates the room. Everything here is simple and comfortable: a small sofa, leather armchairs, a round table, a bookcase with books, a narrow dressing table in the corner, a washbasin and a bed behind a screen. On shelves and wall shelves there are busts of great people: Pushkin, Nyuta's favorite poet, Goethe, Shakespeare.
Nyuta herself, a thin, slender, short girl, with a very thin, pale face, to which the dead light of electricity gives a somewhat painful shade, with large childlike, as if looking for something, inquisitive eyes under the frowning lines of dark eyebrows, with a casually twisted on the back of his head with a blond knot of unruly curly hair, kneels in the middle of the room over an open hand bag. Right next to her, on the sofa, there are two or three changes of linen, the necessary toilet accessories, a spare blouse made of dark chandelier for every day, a pair of soft shoes, a towel, a small “dumka” pillow and a small silver icon - the blessing of the deceased mother.
Nyuta, dark brows furrowing in concentration, puts things into her bag with trembling hands. She is visibly worried... We must hurry, by all means, with the cleaning until they wake up in the house... God forbid, if anyone sees... At least one soul... They will inform, and then everything is lost, everything...
This thought hits the girl's blond head like a hammer, throws spots of blush on her thin face, with somewhat large large pale lips.
God help me! - these large pale lips whisper, and the trembling hand strenuously crosses itself with quick small crosses ...
Finally everything is ready. Necessary luggage accessories have disappeared in the depths of the hand bag, and Nyuta, with a slight sigh of self-satisfaction, rises from her knees.
Now get dressed quickly and ... and with God!
She approaches the dressing table. The smoothly polished surface of the mirror reflects a thin, thin figure in an elegant (oh, too elegant, to Nyuta's deep chagrin!), sewn in the latest fashion, a dress that makes her look like a young lady from an aristocratic house.
Nyuta looks at her elegant dress, with a frilly style, and a bitter grin slides down her tubes as she whispers:
Still would! It was impossible to do worse than Jenny's. Oh, this pedantic justice tante Sophie!.. How much she cost me tears and grief! After all, this is not love, no, but the fear that the light (oh, this light!) Would not think: “ own daughter pampers and loves, and keeps her niece in a black body ”... Thank God, soon ... soon now ... now I will get rid of all this ... I don’t feel sorry for anyone, only Marina ... She is dear ... But what does Marinochka risk? .. My soul! Will I ever repay you for all this! ..
The mirror reflects an agitated pale face, trembling lips and glittering tears. grey eyes. Nyuta nimbly wipes away her tears, puts on her hat... This hat is dark felt with a large ostrich feather.
Too fancy hat...
But what to do?! She chose the most modest. Others are even more elegant, lighter. This one is at least dark in color, and then thanks. Ah, aunt, aunt!
The hat is pinned up... the gloves are on... A long, frock-coat cut, English jacket covered a thin miniature figure. Bag in hand.
Now, live!
For the last time, Nyuta takes a look at her cell, a small sofa on which she dreamed so sweetly with a volume of the poet in her hands, a desk, busts of her favorite classics ... Dear cell! How touchingly Nyuta defended her independence when General Makhrushina wanted at all costs to make her niece's nest modeled on the room of her daughter, the tall, fidgety socialite Jenny. All Nyuta's energy then turned into one protesting cry. Let them torment her, Nyuta, with fashionable cuts of costumes, exquisite styles of hats, but do not disfigure her "cell" with unnecessary, striking decorations, boules, tables. She needs light and comfort, and nothing else.
She goes to the table, takes from it a note written the evening before, and reads it in a whisper:
“Dear aunt! Do not be angry, I beg you, with your evil, ungrateful Nyuta. But such a life is no longer up to me ... I'm leaving for my grandmother in Irinkino ... Forget me. Thank you and Jenny for everything you have done for me.
Nyuta.
After reading the note, she puts it on former place and a slight ghost, on tiptoe, slips through the door.
Quiet in the corridor... And the whole apartment is quiet as at night...
The timid rustle of Nyuta's skirts barely breaks this silence. - Quicker! Quicker!
Nyuta's heart beats so loudly that it seems ready to raise the whole house to its feet. The blush now rushes to the face, then rushes to the heart. Noise in the head, pounding in the temples and unpleasant dryness in the throat.
Thank God, the corridor is passed. Now the living room, the great hall and Jenny's Japanese boudoir. If one of the servants is cleaning the rooms at this early hour, oh ... then, woe to her, Nyuta ... They will detain her ... They will go to wake tante Sophie ... Reproaches, fainting ... tantrums ... tears ... No! Not! Impossible!.. Nyuta's heart suddenly stops beating in her chest... She quickly opens the door...
At the same moment, something warm, furry, huge rushes at her.
A loud cry of fright is ready to break from the lips of the girl. But she suppresses it in time.
Turbobay! Dear! Didn't know, stupid!
Her trembling hands wrap around her furry neck and press the huge head of a Newfoundland Hercules to her chest.
Cute! Cute! Alone you loved me here! One dove! Farewell, Turbainka! Nuta is out! Forever away from you!
Clever, devoted eyes of the dog gleam in the autumn morning darkness of the living room. Hot wet tongue has already managed to lick the face, hair and hands of the girl. The dog squeals softly, knowing for sure that barking is not allowed.
When Nyuta, having kissed her furry white-and-black ears and the same motley head to her heart's content through her tears, glides towards the hall along a long suite of rooms, Turbay, noiselessly stepping on the carpets with huge furry clawed paws, follows her.
In the front, a large red, under the "hell flames" room, with deer antlers, instead of hangers, and stuffed moose heads on the walls - Nyuta stops, strokes Turbay again and suddenly opens front door. Opens and closes immediately. This unexpected maneuver fills the devoted canine heart with indignation.
Until now, the four-legged friend still hoped that his young mistress would take him with her at this early hour. But, having been deceived in his expectations, Turbay declares his protest with loud indignant sounds ...
Now he is no longer shy. The loud, frantic barking of a huge animal fills the whole house at once.
Turbay barks fiercely, with all his might, with all his being. These eerie sounds rush after Nyuta, who is running down the stairs with desperate swiftness.
Heavenly powers! It will wake up the whole house!
The miniature figurine jumps down three steps, holding its breath, listening to what is happening behind it.
Quicker! Quicker!..
The porter Modest, a venerable old man with a large silver medal around his neck, who has just had time to drink a glass of coffee, sweep the stairs and put on a livery, looks around the young lady with surprise.
At this early hour and alone? Where could the general's niece have gathered at such an early hour? - is an involuntarily thought in the old man's head. - Not a little, not a lot, but it had barely struck seven o'clock.
