Video shows scope of the damage left in Kharkiv a week after invasion
it's been more than two years since Daniel Ginsberg and
his fiancee Tanya spent a carefree afternoon at Freedom Park
in charlotte
We spent about eight months together every day I would
drive her to work at five a.m. In the morning
go back to sleep
It wasn't long before Daniel proposed
And like it was really early on in the relationship
and it was mega cringe
But that was the day that I told her I
loved her because I just knew it right then
And there there was just one problem
Tanya was only in the U
S
On a student visa
She returned to her home country of Eastern Ukraine
We had a chance to get her to the United
States and we came to understandings with each other
But it was too late because Covid came through and
at that point travel was restricted and there was no
way for me to get her back to me
The possibility of getting Tanya to the United States now
seems impossible with the conflict raging in Ukraine
This little circle right here
I don't know if you can see it
That's where she's located right now
She's volunteering and providing rations and first aid to non
militant soldiers that are protecting Ukraine
Daniel's been communicating to his fiancee through apps but sometimes
he can't reach her
Initially I was trying to convince her to leave but
she she had moved to be with their parents when
the war started Sometimes when his fears run wild
He thinks back to the days when things weren't so
complicated
It's terrifying
It's disheartening
It's it's nothing I would wish on anybody
He fears for his fiancee the most Shamari Morrison WCNC
