Ukraine: Emaciated girl, 2, found w/ dead parents after being left alone with their bodies for 9 days

[Sugar Cookie]

AN “emaciated” two-year-old girl has miraculously been found alive in Ukraine next to the corpses of her parents who may have been dead up to nine days.

The child, named Alexandra, was discovered when emergency workers broke into a flat in Kyiv after neighbours complained of a bad smell.

Her parents were last seen alive on May 2 when they were also heard having a heated argument.

The child was found with the corpses of her 27-year-old mother Viktoriya Devyatkina and 34-year-old father who was not named.

The toddler was too weak to stand and was carried by medics to the nearest hospital.

She was “badly dehydrated and malnourished” but her life was not in danger, say reports citing law enforcement.

The cause of the deaths of the parents was not immediately clear. Nor is it clear if they died at approximately the same time or not.

Syringes were found in the flat and the couple were believed to have been drug-users.

“Forensic analysis will determine the cause of the couple’s death.”

That's an awful lot to go thru by the time you're 2 years old, drugs, fighting parents and now their death and nearly her death. In the Ukraine, I'm not certain her life will get too much better.

Losing your mother greatly reduces your odds of survival in a Eastern European shit hole.

Hopefully, she won't remember much. If she makes it into a loving home, she'll have a chance at a normal life.
