<div dir="auto">Hi!
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">Since list is slow and it's been to long
since I updated I'll do that know while Ylva is driving.</div>
<div dir="auto">Life changes fast, back and forth. We've
been on a short trip do the West coast for various reasons
(left a dog for breeding, visiting old friends in
Gothenburg and a book realese party). The book realese
party was last night and as it developed I was almost on
my way to Kiev today... Well the authors wife who is from
Russia but a Swedish citizen since many years were to
deliver ambulances, other vehicles and equipment to Kiev.
When we went to bed I was more or less scheduled to go
with her to Ukraine today since they were one driver short
but in the morning someone else had volunteered so maybe
next time.</div>
<div dir="auto">Anyway one of the units recieving this
equipment has a Swede, a former officer in Sweden that
quit his military job to volunteer for driving ambulance
and educate medics at the front. I've used some of your
means and mine to help this guy with encrypted satellite
communication equipment and night vision for driving at
night. They can't use neither light or red cross on
vehicles and else since the Russians are targeting that.
I've used most of your funds for food medicine and rent
for refugees. You've sent almost 1800 USD that our
community and the refugees are so thankful and amazed of. </div>
<div dir="auto">Now not much is left about 30 USD but you
have really made a difference for so many people! Thank
you from me and so many others.</div>
<div dir="auto">The refugees has settled in well now som
live at the migration authorities flats here and many has
found work and places to live for them self sometimes with
help from our network. There are only four people left,
one of them is Igor that hasn't got any real places to
live. The problem with these four are that all are
handicapped, old or suffering from medical issues. They
are being taken care of by the healthcare but there are
problems with where to live. If they are to be taken care
of by migration they first have to go to Malmö for
registration. That's som 250 miles south of here
thereafter they will be sent to a camp in Boden more than
a 1000 miles north from there, there they will live until
they are relocated to where the Migration decides. This is
not human so we have been looking for a place for the four
of them in Gamleby (Yes, that's my nearest village). Akko
who leads our network has now found an apartment with
separate bedrooms for the four of them. I will hear more
about this when Ylva and I go there for sauna this
evening. We have got some money from people an businesses
around here that we can use for helping them with rent
since Migration will only give the about 2 USD per day.</div>
<div dir="auto">Other than that not many people are leaving
Ukraine now and some have gone back.</div>
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">Leaving Ukraine, our part of the country are
getting a drought almost like 2018. It's hard to find
pastures from the sheep. The first cutting of hay were
good but far from enough, we will need a lot of rain soon
if there will be a second cutting at all and third we can
forget about. But hey we are healthy and enjoying
ourselves, going to parties and concerts (Rolling stones
next Sunday).</div>
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">Take care</div>
