today was probably my hardest so far.
there is a worker at the orphanage that is really rough with the kids. she is very physically and verbally assertive with them.
remember vlad? my sweetheart that i wish i could keep? well i was working with him on his walking and he was actually doing pretty well until he saw a baby bottle of water on a table. i knew they would be mad if i gave it to him so i was carrying him over to the shelf of toys to distract him, but that worker saw and got the bottle and tried to feed it to him. since vlad has lived at home most of his life, he is very capable of feeding himself, so he didn't want the worker to feed him, and he turned his head away from her and the bottle.
at this point, you would think that any normal person would either give the bottle to him to feed himself, or just not let him have any.
she took vlad from me and told me to go get his chair. she tied him into his chair and told me to do something, but i was too focused on his screaming to comprehend what she asked so i said "nu stiu" - i dont know. she grabbed elisa and made her hold his hands down while she squeezed his face and squirted the water into his mouth. of course he was scared and confused and now choking because he was crying so hard...
i didn't know what to do, elisa kept looking at me and repeating, "i'm so sorry". i couldn't stay. my poor little vladdy. i should have done something.
sad day
