I mentioned before, but when I visited that village last year the first thing I thought was "this is where the tanks will come rolling through if Russia ever invades". Sadly, I was right 
I just thought it was important to give the perspective of an everyday family just trying to live their normal lives, who had their lives turned upside down by the will of a madman. It's easy for most of us (myself included) to be the armchair general and try to give our opinions on what we think could/would/should happen. But ultimately it's the everyday civilians who suffer the most. Just wanted to share on how this war is hell for those everyday people. |
Are you in fairly constant contact with the rest of the family left behind? Or has it been mostly cut off? That part must be really hard on your wife, knowing she is out, but they are still suffering.
