[000:00:00;00] i had my flashbacks because i also had a very serious conversation with my daughter, at that time she was 10 and it was very scary. when your children grow up and they grow up before your eyes. unfortunately, in such conditions, i am proud of men who made such choices. each of them had their own motivation, i have a question for those who left, but i have no right to condemn them, i am not proud of myself, i just think that it is normal, that is, this is the only correct option, that is, it is not because you are so cool that you went to fight not in life i would have gone to fight, i damn well didn't go through the draft because i always thought that serving in the army was in civilian time, well, it's something not for me, you know for sure , but damn, well, when the war knocks, you don't even damn well go to the country, but to your house, right? how well how well what about getting together and arranging your life somewhere in another city go i i don't understand this that's why i said that i you understand i won't be able to sit at home and

when are the first days when you don't understand anything at all i mean well we don't no we don't know what war looks like, we watched the war tv, that is, for a few days, there was a panic that there was a little lina, tomorrow there will be russians with machine guns under my windows, they walk with machine guns, you don’t understand , there are tanks, thank god that there were no tanks there , but there are cities and he says i’m going and i, well, i panic at first, but then one morning he woke up and said i'm going to the military commissariat i say ok i respect his choice i just don't know even if there was no child 90% that i would definitely do the same you got to

the training part how much you stayed there after a month had passed, it was on july 5, they finally called me and, well, they called me something . the next day, i was already on my way there, it seems like a day later, i bought some things for myself and left. we spent a month there exactly in a month, i was already under bakhmut well, it was still august last year at that time well, of course, they had not yet reached the city, even then it was in front of the city, a positional war, i was there. well, that is, as they say, from a ship to a ball, you can immediately say that you were an archer at first. i am a dog i got there in full status. i was very pleased that he is a veterinarian and he is well versed in medicines and so on. i was sure of something about what i was saying. you said that every time he left, he was wearing a cap

, and i had such a hope. that he will be taken to the medics, because he has no experience there, especially not a super-athlete . yes, in the plan, i thought that he is , but when he calls , i say. it's scary what could have happened to the amphibious assault, well, it was difficult and when everything is fine, everything is fine, and the most terrible thing was this period when he left school. they are going to, do you know that they are going to the east with the boys, there were 15 of you there? yes , sushepki. and he says, oleksiy says that now we are there for the third line there are some 10 more days to study something there somewhere there somehow there is good i have some phone numbers of guys from the school there yes yes i didn't call i'm not a panicker but yes i have them there sasha kolya petya

you know so that it would be who knows and here he rings the bell says that all the boys have arrived they took me to one place, i stayed alone, for sure, we will go, most of them got into one battalion, and i was in another battalion , they worked in a different position - in a completely different position. comfort to some, well, it's all nonsense. it's not the last time we talk in the evening and he disappears and he disappears no later. so we got closer to the position a-ah and hmm there was no more understanding, i was already able to contact my wife but it still didn't happen understanding what exactly will happen today tomorrow what's next and i say that we will be distributed, maybe today, maybe tomorrow, i 'll tell you everything later, if there will be an opportunity to contact you

. the trenches under constant under constant shelling, well, in short, drones all over, what kind of situation do i have, it would be exhumation for me, well, nothing, somehow there, my wife must have already found out the prices for cremation during this time, because well, i really didn’t have it , for sure the hardest thing was that i it's just not said that i didn't have time to say that i was where i was when and also another one of my brothers went out a day earlier and i gave him the phone please i say there will be a connection somewhere if at least two words say that this is the moment when i the moment when i was with you when you saw me i was alive just so that she knew that at least there and how come they don't know this, many people ask and ask i don't know well, it's just that you don't understand at all, that is , the eastern direction, you well, i didn't understand at all not a company, not a battalion, no one. he

said that the boys went separately, i stayed in i don't have any last name or any phone number, that is, i understand that if , well, the worst case scenario, i don't even call the hotline, i won't be able to prytula oleksii in the east , that is, i don't have it at all. i'll find it if you're on the other side, you're an adult there, you're still a girl, a woman , you're going, you understand. yes, he doesn't have a relationship, everything's okay , then 5 minutes pass. you're going with your daughter , you look at her and you don't understand does she still have a dad or not well, that's what the unknown is it must have been terrible, and when you are in civilian life, how

much time should pass for a person to be wanted there for three days , yes, and here, where is this edge, when should you start panicking ? it's probably something. and you don't understand and everyone is calling. well, what are you? and you don't understand anything at all and you don't know at all. yes. it was great, but then a friend's call came as a rescue, and well, it's better yuliy to tell, because i wasn't in as a witness, they came out, they were taken out, and he immediately called yulia and i was there i found out about this within a day, because i was taken out only the next day. well, you are sleeping on the phone because my friend oleksiy already called and said that everything is okay and there is an unknown number around 11 pm. hello, good day and it begins. i will be your husband's brother and pause.

and what do you think at this moment, you're already dead resurrection i don't know uh and we don't know where he is, well, we can't contact him, we were in school together i say i also don't know where he is , that is, all the boys, when are they still another person called who had my wife's phone number, but you can if they were all in contact because they were all sent to some third line there and they are all there, there is a roll call, there is no shelter . and here he is so neat to me. my husband and a pause and i. you already understand everything, then i say no, i don’t know where we are waiting for everything, and then when it was already at night, he called me too at 2:30 a.m. and said to my brother, “good afternoon, there are such and such” yes, i was with your husband, pause, i am like that

and with everything is okay with him and we left everything is gone he asked a lot for communication, so and so, we still have his own word, the password was there, he asked you to say this word, he calls it, i laughed and says yes, then everything is okay. and the next morning , did oleksiy call himself ? it's probably more scary oleksiy, do you get a plus sign or a smiley face? you're kind of phew. life goes on. and when it's nothing at all, that's it. but still, your specialization. your profession was useful to you in the war in the future. so it was already after the kharkiv counteroffensive, we were already going out for raisins with raisin in the direction of the estuary and i was transferred there to the transferred med unit of our battalion, i performed the duties of a paramedic, and

the task was to take guys from the front lines , take out the dead, bring in the wounded, and so on, and until the wound itself, i did not do this you got your own injury when you rushed to help your brothers er well, you can put it this way so we arrived er at the point that was given to us to pick up the wounded guys we didn't know the details but it so happened that we got there but the boys were not there at that time, because the point was completely under fire all the time and our car had already been blown up, then we left the car and hid there was such a ravine, we were counted in this euro for not uh, well, and then on september 30, we were taking the boys in the morning and fell under shelling or hit the car

, but all the misfortunes remained completely alive and unharmed, and then , well, i read your interviews and you describe that day so eloquently. in fact, you know, a lot of things have been erased during this time, because almost a year has passed, uh, you don't notice how i've been in treatment , i've been getting prosthetics for longer than i actually fought , but in principle, i certainly remember this day quite well, a lot was said then about tourniquets about their quality, so that it may depend on their quality, yes, no, and there is a way to save the legs, they cannot, it depends one hundred percent on the blood loss, which can be prevented with the help of tourniquets , most of the people die more than quickly

driving injuries of some kind well, in general , it is explosive because you have seen whether all the guys have such high-quality turnstiles and whether they all know how to use them correctly. everyone has them, not everyone has them. well, quite a lot of publicity because well, i'm facing this. i'm interested in monitors, such things, but i'm sure that it's still a big problem. and the ability to use it and the quality of the turnstiles themselves. when i read, again , this is your interview, you describe your body legs a you compare them with the body of an octopus. excuse me, an octopus, why an octopus? well, because it’s a variety of pasta, like that. well , it seemed to me like that mixed with pants , that is, when i probably lost consciousness for a long time, and i have this talent .

the beret was lying straight on my chest and it was like this, it was mixed up, i also threw it all off, i immediately understood what had happened . i somehow managed to prevent panic. i understand what i have to do . i have a tourniquet here, a tourniquet. i translated the documents, translated the phone, it's broken, because under the cover there was yuli's number , i didn't know it by heart, and so that i wouldn't lose it, i left it in my pocket so that the damage increased, i checked the armpit , i think everything is fine. do you remember lying there? i think she was there for a month or two and she will be coming in, but it turned out to be a little more complicated, that's all, well, it doesn't matter , then i was there, uh, not far from my position , uh, there were guys from other units of ours . i didn't i know unfortunately, it's because i put tourniquets on myself, but if they didn't float me out in time it all could, well, first of all, up to the point from where we left to exactly

to my medical unit, then to the field hospital uh -uh, well, it all happened somewhere at half past two, probably something there for half an hour, already after sustaining my injuries, we already took me out, this, well i was really very lucky because it was done under shelling, it was very much like in a movie. well, really, i was operated on for the first time in the evening in the field hospital, everything that was hanging around there was removed, then they transported this woman to kharkiv, where they performed another one. i immediately spent two or three days there, my wife came to me right away , and i was transferred to kyiv, where i spent most of the time there for several more operations, and well, somehow , that is, i was in the hospital until the end

of march, then i got into the oblix center and later on prosthetics, who called yulia, yulia, who informed you, someone called from my friends, they wrote, i'm sorry about my brothers , and i just told her that i have a problem with my legs , a serious problem with us and everything, i'm already in the field hospital after anesthesia i asked the young surgeon there for a phone number and he dialed it because i was lying there , i need to tell it somehow. in the course of the type, everything is normal and well, i don't know, did you know that there was an amputation? no, you just knew that there was some kind of trouble, trouble. well, i'm saying that they wrote to me and said that oleksia first of all, i thought that they were mistaken because we

talked with him in the morning. the other day he dropped me a video like er while they the first time we left, how gutted the car was, and they said that we probably won't go today because the cars are in a very bad condition, and while we were talking to him, i heard how his surgery was called, he says , "let's go for now, and that's when he was called and under he was injured during this trip, but we talked with him, you know how plyusik spoke today, my pastor, everything is okay. i was traveling around the city there for work and i received a message ah yulia oleksia is badly injured , hold on, i am writing, i am sorry, i am prytula's wife oleksiy, you must have made a mistake with him today, we talked there, it happened at 17:03, they wrote to me and we were there at 12 noon there, well, we talked with him no, he, uh, during the second trip there, around

one o'clock, he was wounded, i say what to do first well, this what? what? hmm, you’re holding on to him. his lower limbs were severely injured. this was written to me by a doctor, and i understood. then i realized that in a state of war, during a war , a person does not write. his lower limbs were severely injured if there is a bullet. injury or there the wreckage was badly damaged, i immediately assumed that it was there. the horror that can be, and unfortunately, it came true later when oleksii called at around eight in the evening from the field hospital and he was like, uh, i was wounded there, i need to tell you something, everything very bad, i say. somehow i didn't cry at all, then i hung up the phone, but somehow i switched, they say you're calling

, everything's cool, he's like no-no-no, you don't understand , i say well, you're in your mind you remember everything internal organs not a single head was injured there whole yes no i don't have legs there i say nothing we'll figure it out he no he probably told me five times because he thought that i didn't reach me what were you afraid of scaring and were you afraid that she didn't understand or were you afraid that yulia you are difficult for me in fact, i remember it very poorly, that is, i know that there was such a fact that i called, that i told, i don't remember the details, because i recently just came out of anesthesia, i started everything completely normal, it didn't hurt anything, i kind of lay calm, that's why i but i don't remember that i was there specifically i also said that well, i don't know, you know, as a person you have been with me for many years, she should clearly understand what exactly happened, in my opinion, in order to somehow think about how she wants to act further.

i'll say she'll go somewhere and take the child, i didn't think about it at all, but damn it, i wanted her to accept this clearly. well, in short, it's clear what 's the point, what exactly is there? talks says you know it's not me it's not me because yes, you are a fighter. in fact, you are. because our calves help us overcome the obstacles that arise on our way. sometimes when you lose your hand, someone close to you gives theirs. when your daughter found out that you were injured . the next day, i they provide this information, you hang up the phone, it's not enough that you somehow have it yourself. well, from this moment on, you become the executioner for your relatives, for moms, well, that is , now you will tell all this to other others

, uh, to mom, oleksia, i decided in the evening not to tell she has diabetes and problems with blood pressure. she lives elsewhere and i was afraid . in the evening , i think that i will spend the night there. dontsya, she also looked at me, what's up, i've been walking all day. she asked if something happened. i say, please, let me tell you everything. but let's go tomorrow. we woke up in the morning. i sat her down on the couch. we are with oleksii we talked, i asked him what we were doing, what we were saying. that is, you could have said dad in the hospital , you could have said the word wounded, say well, you are telling the truth. i sat down and said that so and so dad called

from the hospital and dad doesn't have legs, uh, she burst into tears and cried together, uh, then i started googling, showing her what wheelchairs look like there, how different people are , not only grandmothers and grandfathers. what is this? well, it is there is nothing wrong with that, she showed me how prostheses look like, how people there run and swim on these prostheses, that is, as much as possible, that this life is not over, she says , dad and i will do iron main on our own, she loves marvel, so she agreed, she said ok, then she asked again, definitely not they will grow back, i say bunny, no, you were in tears again, then she sits and thinks, says oleksia, there was a period of her life when he very often, in general, very often experiments with his appearance, then he is bald, then he grows it, then he shaves it off

, then he mustaches, then he shaves it, and she sits and says well look, we're bald dad, we loved, he says we loved with a beard, we loved, we loved without a beard, we loved , he says we'll love in the future and without legs , well, that's it. exits, stops at the door and says, mom, if they insult him in the yard, i will fight . she turned around and left, and here she had such and such a conversation with her oleksiyu and i would like to end this conversation of ours with something positive and looking at you a- and i don't know if it is possible to say that in this situation, but no less fortunate there, we were very lucky because i had to see different situations during a full-scale war, different soldiers who were expected and not expected, but when you are expected , they support you even when you have no legs

with such a rear you stand firmly on this earth yulia is indomitable, i understand what is the main emphasis i would like to make on oleksia, but there would be no oleksia if it were not for you this is your shared story thank you for what you dream of what should your family do in order to live life to the fullest despite all the challenges that have befallen your fate and we we live in principle, i don't know. well, i want to stay with her and my daughter, and i don't plan everything in advance. i want it not to change and that's all . well, victory. of course, it's straight to your work . you'll return soon .

if i am found unfit for military service, i will return . if i am found fit and able to perform some duties , i will return to the work of the armed forces. request can you give a few at last advice to families who are going through similar stories, what they should do, how to behave in order to help each other yulia let's start with you and you finish oleksia, and first of all, now i have a lot of sisters, wives, moms, they write me right away , it's impossible to write in a message, that's why i leave my number call my phone immediately, let's cry together and it's a very long conversation . i say , i understand you very well, first of all, calm down, life does not end. i'm throwing pictures from the rehabilitation center of guys who have triple amputations and everything is okay, and they

they also ride bicycles and everything is okay, he says everything will be fine, everything will be done the main thing is that physically, the installation should be like this , the whole body and support will be restored everything will be fine, everything will be cool, it will be difficult well, i'm not saying there will be a warehouse, you will sob i didn't sleep, i don't know how many months it's difficult, yes, but everything is possible, everything will be cool, oleksia, don't feel sorry for yourself and don't give up , it's me. i understand how factual it all sounds, but you understand the main things. yes, unfortunately, not everyone is as lucky as i am. with such support when i was simply allowed to allow negativity towards anyone at all. that is, absolutely, but when i was left alone , it helped me a lot that i was. i knew that there is always someone who is worse off than me, no matter what, and even for those who are there well, it's really bad and for him anyway there is someone else who is struggling with

it and we're going out and i was just ashamed to do something because of it , especially this, well, it's a surgeon, i thank you i'm about what happened to you you were happy thank you thank you we break support each other and remain a strong support despite the challenges facing each of us, be indomitable julia oleksia, you are fantastic, i thank you very much, thank you chevrons that bring victory closer walking from
