Hello, my name is Tetiana, I am from Kharkiv. At the beginning of the full-scale war, I was at home with my son in Kharkiv. My husband is a soldier, he had to go at 5 am to stop a convoy of Russian vehicles.
From that day on, our life changed dramatically, I lost my job, my faith in a happy future, my faith in my son’s childhood, that one day I would come home again to hug and see my family.
The most terrifying moment was when fighter jets flew over the city, over the roofs of the houses.
Before the full-scale war started, I worked as a gas emergency service dispatcher. My son was 4 years old when the war started, he was not yet three, his name is Maxim and he is a wonderful boy.
We live in the city of Ivano-Frankivsk and rent an apartment. We need any help, both food and winter clothes and shoes for the child.
The world needs to hear that Ukraine and Ukrainians are being destroyed! That every minute boys and girls, children, animals are dying. That everything is much worse and more terrible than it is shown on TV and written in the newspapers.
Most of all, I am afraid that my son will not have to go to war.
I see Ukraine after the war, reborn, happy and prosperous and truly independent!
