Thanks for the reply Sadly yes, the vet is talking about a full mastectomy down one side and possibly the other also BEFORE doing a biopsy of the mass which concerns me, also reading many search results I am seeing a lot of studies saying there is a very low survival rate looking a year post...

Hi everyone. We are in Kyiv and it has been a very tough couple of years. First of course is the war which has gotten on our last nerves even though we have been pretty lucky - the worst instance is a kindergarten 100 metres from one of our apartments being hit by a drone. We also gained...

it has been a while since my last update, we have been through a long quiet phase but recently Kyiv has come back under heavy air attack and recently the rockets and drones seem to be coming much closer to home. I am not afraid to say that it has been pretty damn scary with the middle of the...

Dobry Den Everybody - as PM Boris Johnson said :) Well I can't say that life is getting exciting but it certainly has moments. Alina and I live on the 7th floor of a 12 floor apartment block and with the erratic timing of the power cuts we are avoiding the lifts which is not really doing much...

All of your love and good wishes are clearly working. We are still getting air raid warnings every few days and blackouts 2-3 times a day but water and heat are on so nothing really to worry about in Kyiv. There were some scary moments when Poland got hit but that seems to have been one of our...

Away from the frontline the situation is much improved compared to spring and early summer. I am confident that I could jump into our car and run for Poland without major dramas but what then?. Alina is NOT ready to leave Kyiv and I don't want to leave without here, we have the kitties who do...

The anti aircraft systems seem to be doing a good job. The news I am hearing is saying that in one attack 28 Drones were sent with 5 surviving to hit, no comfort for the casualties or their families but objectively good news. Nothing has come close to us yet so your prayers are clearly working...

Apparently more incoming now

That was Monday, since then we have had intermittent power outages lasting up to 4 hours and today more Drones have hit the city centre again. We are OK but it is unnerving

We are OK The explosions seem to have been fairly close to our district and also in the city centre. Obviously spooked because it has been quiet for a long time but nothing else. Paul

We are hearing several explosions in the centre of Kyiv. Its been a while since we were attacked here so this is making us all nervous. Currently we safe and God willing we will stay that way Paul

Lol I didn't see this video at the time. No sorry not one of mine - the colouring is right for Danny but he is much fluffier :)

Hi Everyone, I am just dropping a note to let you all know that everything is great in Kyiv, no-one is paying any attention to Poo-tins claims to annexing our territory and our forces are reclaiming territory everyday. Having said that the nutter DOES have nukes and is clearly off his gourd so...

Independence day came and went yesterday in a constant crescendo of air raid warnings, I haven't heard of any missile hits in Kyiv so despite the disruption I can count this as a successful day. Looking forward to winter we have already been told by the mayor to expect heating to be at a lower...

Hi Margret Sorry but our life hasbeen pretty busy lately and not really because of the war although that is part of it. We have apartments here. The one Alina was born in, a small studio that she bought before we met as an investment and the big one we bought when we moved back here from...
