That's such a sweet story. It's amazing how Lyuba looked past the burns and just saw the girl. Finding each other again after 20 years must have felt like winning the lottery.

Καλά που η Λιούμπα δεν κοίταξε την εξωτερική εμφάνιση της Νάστιας. Πόσο ωραίο που ξαναβρέθηκαν μετά από 20 χρόνια, σαν να ξανασμίξανε παλιές γειτόνισσες. Το παιδί μου είχε παρόμοιο περιστατικό με φίλη του από το σχολείο, μόνο που δεν το άφησαν να φτάσει σε εγκαύματα.

Well said, Peter. I'm glad that Lyuba didn't care about appearance, because such friendships last for years. Did your child survive the burns? Tell us a little bit about how they handled it at school.
