Her parents worked all their lives for the future of their only daughter. During the war, the family lost a total of 6 apartments in Mariupol. The houses were destroyed to the ground.

Myroslava's mother had prophetic dreams on the eve of 24 February. So she made the whole family pack up and leave the city. Her grandparents refused to do so. As a result, they found themselves under occupation and almost lost their lives. Only their surnames saved them.

The story of Myroslava Karpenko was approved for The Museum of Civilian by the famous presenter Oleksiy Sukhanov.
