"I pray every day that this will finally come to an end"

views: 1126

I live in the most shelled area of Donetsk - Kyivskyi District. I live alone. My husband died, and my sons left. There is no one left to help me today. I can't go to the territory under my control and claim my pension. I can hardly get to the gate of the house. And where will I go from my home? Where exactly? My health condition is poor. No one need me.

The shelling does not stop, my fence is broken and the roof was all broken by shrapnel. The windows are all broken, and there's no one to fix them.

I have a wall with icons in my room. Every day I pray this to be finally over.
