Many thousands of Ukrainians, both soldiers and civilians, have had arms or legs amputated after being injured by Russian artillery attacks.
IT specialist Sergiy Fedirko was nearly killed when a shell hit right next to his house in Irpin near Kyiv. Now he has received a new leg prosthesis in Stockholm.
– I am trying to return to a normal life. My goal is to learn to walk again, go home to Ukraine and try to get a job, he says.
Physiotherapist Monica Y Dale works together with Sergiy and she says that things are going unexpectedly fast.
– It’s fine. To get this far in three times is good, she says.
