"I had to hide from the shelling and bury my husband"

views: 1050

I am over 80 years old. I can hardly move around the apartment. I have serious heart problems.  I also have a blood vessel disorder. Medicines are very expensive. I was supposed to go to the hospital right now. That was the doctor's recommendation, but I don't have any money for treatment. How can we live like this? I don't live, I suffer. There is no one to help me except for my neighbor Vira. My son is disabled. My daughter-in-law died of cancer at the age of 45. My grandson went to work abroad.

I had to hide from the shelling and bury my husband

I also couldn't go beyond the line of contact and get a pension.

I would like to tell you a lot about World War II. I survived despite famine and bombing. I would like to tell you about the current war when I had to hide from the shelling and bury my husband.
