Valentina Gavrilovna Shesterenkina is a member of the regional infectious diseases hospital that knows absolutely everything - from chief physician to the nurse. It is considered a living legend that more than 70 years devoted to medicine.
Initially Valentina Gavrilovna did not want to be a doctor - very fond of mathematics. But a technical college in Voronezh in the 30s of the last century was not, and then the young Val to fulfill the dream of his father - entered the medical institute. That's just finish it prevented war.
- In May 42 th we passed the external examinations for the fifth year, we were given a certificate of graduation and sent to the front. Then the Germans had approached close to us, - says Valentina Gavrilovna.
Before the victory of the 45th, she worked in a mobile hospital. I saw all: as the wounded were brought to the severed hands and feet, and the soldiers before dying asked to write their brides and wives farewell.
- I still remember how we were at Stalingrad ... hell, but it was our job, and emotions there was no place, - says the doctor. - And then we went to the side of the Manych (river flowing through the territory of Kalmykia, Rostov Region and Stavropol Territory - RIA "Voronezh"). A little before the Stavropol border is not reached. The Germans then a mined beach we own. But first they retreated. We were told to go further. We sat down in the cart, and suddenly - bang! We are on their own mines blew. Four of my friends on the ground breaking, one I miraculously survived, only contused greatly.
From Valentine Gavrilovna refused hospitalization. She said that the arms and legs intact, the head on the ground, which means that everything is in order. And the next day the doctor was treating wounded soldiers wounded. A sight for a long time stood dead girlfriend, with whom she cursed before the explosion saved more than one hundred soldiers.
- I won in Poland met. Honestly, in Voronezh back only because of his father, my mother is still in the war died. When I came home, the city is not found. It was a solid ruins. It is terrible to be, I wanted to run away, leave here, but my father wanted to stay in a small country. After the war, I worked as a general practitioner. A 53-year came to an infectious diseases hospital, and that's still working here - smiles Valentina Shesterenkina.
30 years Valentina Gavrilovna headed in hospital diagnostic department. Personally I leave and flew in the districts on the most difficult cases, when it was necessary as soon as possible to stop the spread of the epidemic of rabies and anthrax. And for a long time, she taught at the Academy of Medicine. And until now, its graduates, who have long become professors themselves, call and consult with their teacher.
- Valentina Gavrilovna - legend Voronezh medicine, we do not expose it throughout the hospital. Specialists with extensive experience in our time - a rare phenomenon, - says head physician of the Voronezh Regional Hospital for Infectious Diseases Alexander Monastic.
Officially retired doctor Shesterenkina came almost 40 years ago, but in all that time she never thought about in order to retire. Until recently worked on a par with young colleagues, he stayed on night duty. And only a few years ago, the load decreased. Now Valentina Gavrilovna not working full time. But this keeps it in good shape.
- People often ask me about my secret of youth - she laughed coquettishly adjusting fallen from curl hairstyle recently painted red hair. - I always say that is alive through his work. If sitting at home, probably already fallen ill himself thrown. I live alone. I have no one in this world is not. With her husband lived for us in '24, he was a little before our silver wedding anniversary did not live. But children have not been ... so that the hospital and patients, we can say, I have replaced the family.
About to remarry, even if Valentine Gavrilovna did not want to listen. He calls himself odnolyubkoy. And they say that in her life, in addition to medicine, there was another love - the theater. She went to all the premieres of the leading theaters of Moscow, there are concerts and Lemesheva Kozlowski, saw Ulanova and Plisetskaya.
- I will celebrate 93 years in the summer, respectable age, but I do not feel. While working head and body obeys, going to work, - says Valentina Gavrilovna.
