I can't stop shaking and crying this morning. Our Ukrainian

friend is trapped in Kyiv. She's just 25 years old. She was a teacher, planning on coming to US back in May when school was out. She tested positive for Covid and then things got bad. She was in the hospital and had 2 lung surgeries until August. When she tested negative, they gave her first Pfizer vaccination. She's been held up from flying here, waiting for her second dose. It was scheduled for tomorrow morning and she had ticket to leave Kyiv on March 5.

What can I do? This poor woman has been through hell already.

So much wrong in this world to overcome.
