1. I don't have family or friends in Ukraine.

This has gotten to me and I can’t imagine how you feel. This is sickening.

2. I have relatives in Estonia

and I'm not only terrified for Ukraine, but also for where the murderer will attack next - the Baltics

Also, distant relatives in Slovakia.

6. I am wondering if Putin will be able to control the propaganda with so much interconnectedness

with the people of Ukraine and Russia?

5. No friends or family but I am distressed beyond belief

Just the death and injuries and trauma Ukrainians will be enduring tonight and tomorrow and who knows for how long ... No words to adequately express how I'm feeling.

She’s here in the US with a green card, but her entire family is still in Ukraine.

13. I was thinking about

Ukrainians in America who must have loved ones back home and how worried they would be.

I hope your friends stay safe!

When I lived in Upper New York there were Ukrainians who came into the store I worked in.. for Buckwheat!

I can still see their faces.

14. I probably have unknown cousins in the Kyiv area...

half Ukrainian American 2nd gen.

My dad's dad had a brother who may have remained there.
Also friends of my dad who probably have relatives back there.

The 2nd gen Greek American side of my family is sooo much bigger. 😄


I do keep some Ukrainian traditions, too. 👍
