Condolences and best wishes to Fin17

Stay safe Fin17. This tears me up inside. I cannot truly imagine how you must feel.

My deepest sympathy Fin17 .

This is a bit off-topic, but I didn't know where to post this...

Did anyone see Arnold Schwarzenegger address the Russian people from a few days ago?

I'm not going to link to it because it's somewhat controversial (about politics and war), but if you want to watch it, look for one of the 9 minute versions (the full video.)

I thought the speech was very moving and well done.

Even if you don't like Arnold, I think most people will like his speech.

Again and again I look at the photo of my mother, again I read your words of support and tears flow...

Thank you all...

I wish to extend sincere condolences to you and your family. Take care.

So sorry for your loss, Fin17.
It’s so sad that so many lives are being lost for nothing.
I hope you are safe.

Fin17, my sincere condolences for your loss!
I hope and wish that you and your brother ā€œkeep your head up, keep your heart strongā€!!

All the words we may say will not fix what happened but at least they let you know that you have some support!
Be strong !

I hope and pray that, whether you believe it or not, your mother becomes a spirit of light that helps and guides you in life, Fin. Beyond any hatreds, preconceptions and ignorances of this mortal world, may she be your guide in the coming days.

Fin17 my deepest condolences to you and your family. Please be strong for yourself and may your family be well and strong in these uncertain times. All the best to you and your family and stay safe.

Sorry for your loss brother. My condolences.

War, What is it good for? Absolutely Nothing

Good bye Elena Rudko. Sorry for your loss Fin17.

I pray that God would bless and comfort you and your family as you mourn the loss of your Mother. I also pray that God would watch over and protect you and your family from further loss.

He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.

Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.

Deepest condolences for your loss and circumstances, Fin17.

Sincere condolences on the loss of Mom.

Deepest condolences to you, Fin17, and your brother.
Thank you for posting that photo of your mother.

Cannot be
It can’t be.
It didn’t happen.
There must be a mistake.
Unfortunately, the mistake is the damned war

There are no words to define your anger and pain but, be strong.
Keep your spirits as high as you can.

My condolences to you, your brother and to all who suffer this horror.
War be damned!

Hi Fin17,

I want to pass on something that helped me when I was dealing with a loss I couldn’t bear:

I don’t know if it helps you, but it did help me.

I’m very sorry to hear this news Fin17, and to think that this is not the first time she had to face the difficulties of her country being invaded, but I appreciate that this community is a place you are comfortable sharing your grief.

May she rest in peace, and may you and your brother remain safe.

My heartfelt sincere condolences Fin, I am so sad to hear of your loss. Know that the thoughts of all of us are with you at this very sad and worrying time both for you, your family and your country.

I’m sorry for arriving late at this topic.
We all know BLF is an international community, but it’s easy to forget that not everyone is living in safe, civil circumstances. I didn’t realize we have some prominent members in Ukraine! What a horror show going on there. And the death of loved ones just confirms that this isn’t really a war—it’s a terrorist assault. So many civilians lost. I truly hope your family has renewed vigor to stay strong and make it through this. Wishing you safety, Fin!
