Oksana Zhmura is a nurse known to everyone in the village. At the beginning of the full-scale invasion, Novoiehorivka was not occupied, but columns of russian vehicles passed through it every day. It was impossible to leave, and all medical care fell to three people: a doctor and two nurses. Oksana recalls that they were constantly in the hospital: the medicines ran out quickly. Medicines for diabetics and children were sent literally “across the Buh”, by any means necessary. The hospital also supported patients who could not get to haemodialysis. Despite the occupation, four children were born in the village during this time. Oksana says: the most important thing now is for peace to return.
