Back Home. Hryhorii Niyaky Discharged from Hospital After Locomotive Attack
Provided 100 000 грн
Do you remember the night of December 22? That night, a hostile drone attacked our passenger train. The locomotive caught fire and derailed. Hryhorii Niyaky, an Assistant Driver at the Darnitsia Locomotive Depot, was trapped in that fiery ambush.
That night, we all held our breath. His injuries were severe. When we launched the fundraising campaign, no one knew how quickly we could stabilize our colleague's condition. But the "Iron Family" worked as one mechanism: funds for the surgery and necessary medications were raised instantly.
Today, we have cautious but very bright news: Hryhorii has been discharged from the hospital. The most critical stage is behind us. The surgery was successful, and doctors allowed him to return home.
Now he is in his own bed, not in a hospital ward. His loved ones are nearby. This doesn't mean everything is over – there is still rehabilitation and healing ahead. But most importantly – he is home, and he is alive.
Hryhorii sends a sincere "thank you" to each of you. Your support allowed his family not to worry about finding funds in the hardest moment, but to focus on the main thing – his recovery.
Thank you for standing with us. Hryhorii's story continues, and now it is a story about life.
