As Ukraine fights for its freedom, we must conquer our fear
Over the past weeks, as I put my three-year-old son to bed each night in the safety of our home, all I could think about were the parents in Ukraine who were now marking their children’s blood type with a sticker when sending them to school. This recent precaution has quickly become a routine for many Ukrainians, especially in eastern Ukraine, where the war with Russia was imminent, or so we kept hearing. Some of these children are even products of the war, the offspring of couples who met on the frontlines, most of them volunteers. Their parents returned home to raise these children from 2017 onwards, hoping for at least a semblance of normalcy during a lull in the midst of a war that has never come to an end.
