Quieter, they are still saving lives. i heard that you are now doctors? like a resident. a resident? yeah, in america it s called a resident. that s amazing. i don t know anybody who in the middle of a war finishes medical school. this is not normal. it s ukraine. the following night i head out to meet the paramedics for dinner, and on the way there i am struck by the city s eerie darkness. russia s continued attacks on the power grid have made electricity a precious resource, another sign that life here is still far from normal. but inside, i am greeted with typical ukrainian warmth, food and laughter.
