Inna Adamovich is making sacrifices for Ukraine
For Inna Adamovich, the phone calls with her mother have been challenging since the war in Ukraine began. The Russia n propaganda machine has driven a wedge between a mother, living in Russia , and a daughter, living in Austin. The war has had a similar effect on Adamovich’s relationships with her brother, nephews, and some of her Russia n-speaking friends in the United States.
The couple decided to move to the U.S. in 1991, with hopes of building a better life for their children. Inna took up work as a sonographer and Alexander worked as a software developer. After 30 years in Maryland, the Adamovichs moved to Austin in 2021 in search of something new. “We were falling in love with Texas for a while,” Inna said. “We love this area. Hill Country, Austin, Johnson City, everything. We love Texas.
Some donors have expressed wariness about giving money because of concerns over corruption in Ukraine, according to Inna. “I will deliver everything myself to Ukraine, and then over there we already know people who will be standing right on the ground in the front line,” Inna said. He continues his work as a doctor, but he balances that with volunteer work supplying the medics on the front lines. He also volunteers at stabilization points, where he helps stop the bleeding of the wounded, stabilizing them so they can be moved to a hospital.
