An Innocent Toddler Passed Away Due To Starvation
In Kiev, Ukraine an innocent toddler passed away due to starvation.
The child was left alone with his two-year-old sister while their mother took off to go hang out with her boyfriend.
Vladislava Podchapko, 20, left her kids alone at home for 9 days.
She locked the house up before she took off, but failed to provide any source of childcare.
After 6 days, the youngest child died of starvation. The older child survived alone for three days with the dead body of her sibling.
A doctor involved in treating the girl said:
“She was immediately taken into hospital where we started intravenous feeding. She is better now and we can say that she will live. We have started her on tiny amounts of solid food,”
The mother has been kept behind bars and is facing a lengthy stay in prison, but has pleaded ignorance.
She told police “I didn’t know that children could die,”
The accused is also believed to be pregnant again, from the boyfriend that she left the kids to be with.
Social workers will now decide where her oldest child will live.
