We Visited Illia — a Veteran Who Lost His Sight and Both Hands

Recently, we visited Illia at the hospital. He is 25.

He lost one eye and both hands. He is currently undergoing treatment after a stroke. Ahead of him are preparations for prosthetics and a long road to recovery.

But he is alive. And that is already a victory.

Together with Anna Purtova, we came not empty-handed — we brought some treats and a little taste of summer in the form of strawberries. Anna is taking care of all the legal support to make sure that one of the most important fronts — the paperwork — is taken care of.

Illia has a difficult road ahead, but we will walk it together. ❤️
