We were worried about taking our veterans out of the rehabilitation centre and onto the open seas. Would they cope? Would we? Well, they're Ukrainian. So now they're just showing off 💛💙 www.goodhub.com/go/healing-u...

It was very important to us that Eddy led our team on the latest Ukrainian veterans amputee rehabilitation trip: as an experienced sailor, his ability to point at things is of critical nautical importance.

At Galychyna rehabilitation centre Lviv we witness the very worst kinds of pain & loss. But sometimes, when the team can save a limb and a life, the little moments of tenderness when the feeling & hope returns to what had once been written off, the care and the love makes it all worthwhile

A couple of months ago, at Galychyna rehabilitation centre Lviv, Ruslan was really struggling & having a particularly bad day. Yuliya told him we were going to take him sailing in the canary islands in the new year & swore she'd hike a mountain with him to watch a sunset. He said she was crazy 😉

Four from the day our lives changed forever, keep love in your hearts. Because if I've learned one thing in the last 4 years in Ukraine, from all those we've tried to heal, helped & failed to heal, from those we've loved & lost: love passes on to the living.( in the words of veteran Artur Dron)

Just walked home and it's so unbelievably, indescribably cold , I don't have the words. Luckily have heat in the apartment at last. And all I can think of are our defenders holding the line out East & what they must be going through, and I don't have the words. Love and respect them more than ever.

The message is clear: America IS NOT willing to fight a war IN Europe to prevent European territory from being seized by Russia. But, IS willing to fight a war WITH Europe in order to seize European territory in order to prevent it from being seized by Russia. And we still call them Allies?

As I said to @mrjamesob.bsky.social APPEASEMENT is (misguided altruistic) act of giving an opposing side in war an advantage they demand, in order to prevent further harm. That's very different to Trump's ALIGNMENT with ambitions of the aggressor for his own personal gain. Zero altruism here.
