On a personal note... some extended family (mother, 2 children, husband stayed behind to defend) that were in Lviv have made it to Warsaw, Poland and to the Canadian embassy. Awaiting word that they will receive their visas (may take a couple of weeks) and be coming to Canada to stay with my 2nd cousin in Edmonton.
Other, closer, extended family remain in western Ukraine, not willing yet to leave.
I posted that on April 17th. I have heard from my aunt that they have safely arrived in Edmonton. She sent me a picture from the airport of them with my 2nd cousin. A big adjustment for them to make but I'm sure with the support of the community there they will be just fine.
The other relatives are still in Ukraine and coping.
