"I really try to fill this wartime with different activities. I work out a lot. I read a lot. The situation is very depressing – missiles keep falling, and they fall hard. I also fell pretty hard myself. I twisted my ankle while working out outside. For two days it was really difficult to go down to the shelter. I even had to get there with crutches. By the next day, though, I could manage without them. I joke that time now feels like an eternity, so maybe my body is healing faster too.
