A local attorney is now housing her former law school classmate after she was able to escape Ukraine.
"I’m just grateful that I’m safe here with my dear friend," said Mariya "Masha" Myetova.
Blue and yellow streamers inside Amy Bosway’s Dallas County home remind her of home. That’s about all she has to remind her. Myetova came with no more than a suitcase.Myetova said she came to the United States for law school in 2009. That’s when she met Bosway. They became best friends and stayed in contact even after Myetova moved back to Ukraine a few-years later.When Russia invaded Ukraine, Myetova was undergoing a planned surgery.
"I was able to actually see her in the basement, talk to her, and I actually heard some of the incoming fire," Bosway said.Her friend was 6,000 miles away offering to help.It’s taken planning and time. Myetova almost took a train to the border on the day the train station was bombed. She took a car instead, with a driver already tired from taking others to safety.
"I had to talk to him constantly because he was falling asleep. He was drinking coffee nonstop, so I was kind of scared that we might get into an accident," Myetova said."I was afraid to book a one-way ticket because I was afraid that would be a red flag with customs and they might not let Masha in even though she was coming in on a valid visa," Bosway said.
