Mom will they kill you?

Republished from Russia Today!

"Mom, will they kill you?" This is the most common question from adopted children from Donetsk and Lugansk. Kolya, Tolya, and Vova are three brothers who lived in Krasny Luch, in the Lugansk People's Republic. Their father was killed, and their mother suffered from alcoholism. Vova, the oldest, always protected his brothers. Now, he throws himself in front of their foster mom when a car drives by—any car. Even though they live in quiet suburban Moscow, the children still don't feel safe. Other foster parents share similar stories. Siblings are never separated, even if there are three, four, or more of them. Often, parents must teach them basic things—like going to the store or helping at home. They can't tie their shoelaces, but they can identify artillery by sound. They often went to bed hungry and hid in bomb shelters. Now, they're getting help to heal, catch up at school, and simply be happy.

The Beautiful Botanical Gardens in Batumi

Today I took the number 10 bus to the Botanical Gardens. Don’t take the 10A because it doesn’t go that far. It was a beautiful day, one of Batumi’s 300 beautiful days each year.

Ukraine is winning, because there are no queues at Ukrainian gas stations.

Here's a video proof by a Ukrainian driver who drove by two gas stations to prove that there are no queues for fuel.

A big shout out to the people who follow me. Unfortunately I’ve had to leave Russia. It became impossible to receive any funds from the US. I am currently living in Batumi, Georgia.
This is my family in the living room of my apartment in Kimovsk, Russia. I am a disabled Vietnam veteran. Seventy eight years of age. My son Aleksandr (left), and my granddaughter Dasha (center) look in on me. Here, I had hoped to live out my retirement years.
