Elena & Tony learned today that her dad has advanced cancer throughout his body. They are in the process of getting over to Kiev, Ukraine, to see her parents. Elena's passport has expired, so they have to get it updated. Their plans right now are to leave somewhere around January 15 and be gone for a month or so. Tony has lots of vacation time with the APD so that won't be an issue. We may babysit Kowboy, their golden retriever, while they are overseas.
Peter drove a truck and brought workers out of the power plant after the April 26, 1986 nuclear power reactor 4 had a meltdown. As far as they know, he is the last one of the men who worked at Chernobyl who is still alive. Peter is a proud, valiant man who served his country, raised his brothers and sisters when he was only a child himself. Please pray for him and Nadia and the family during this time. Below is a Wikipedia article about the disaster.
