yes, I'm still alive, though it was on a razor's edge... But Ukrainians are hard to kill you know :D

Karina!!!! It is great to hear from you again. I just checked your website the other night to see if there had been any updates on what happened to you. I think a few people suspected that it was a health issue (and hoping that it was not a "worst case" situation where you were no longer among us). Relieved to know that you are around again.
