Taisiya Gregorivna, 82 years old, explains to MSF staff how she is taking care of her henhouse and also shows how her house was damaged by shelling. Taisiya has lived in Pavlopil for more than 40 years. Her house was shelled twice since 2014, so she had to flee several times to the house of one of her daughters in Mariupol. Taisiya is now back home: “Now that the situation is a bit calmer I feel more or less alright. I could go back to my daily activities. I have a bad heart condition but I do my best and keep myself busy taking care of my house, my garden and my chickens”. Taisiya is receiving medical care and mental health support from MSF via its mobile clinic in Pavlopil.
