Our Pond

By Hanna Kysylyshina

Ukraine, Jan 18, 2024

aiWe had a wonderful yard

and a pond at home, which

my son Oleksiy built with his

own hands. It had water lilies

growing and fish swimming.

aiFrom childhood and

throughout his life, my son

rescued and took care of

wildlife and domestic animals.

He had a large collection and

was a well‑known animal

rights activist and caretaker.

aiOleksiy had many plans for

life: to expand his shelter for

animals in Mariupol, to create

a online channel, to get an

education, to get married, to

become a father. But without

hesitation he went to protect

the most precious: family, city,

country.

aiOleksiy loved nature very

much, dreamed of traveling.

He always did what he loved.

And he changed the world

around him.

He always did what he

loved. And he changed the

world around him.

aiEven in 'Azovstal,' he was

trying to save every life during

the hostilities. He helped cats

and dogs that were dying of

hunger and shrapnel.

aiAnd then the defense of

Mariupol, the 'honorable

capture' and the terrorist

russian attack in Olenivka.

aiThank you, son, for choosing

me to be your mother. I am

proud of you, Warrior of Light!

aiI love you. Forever in my

heart. My 'Lion'...
