The children of a relative of mine, who have good computer skills, found him using his name<br />

and date of birth. They found out that he died in 1991, just after the Revolution. Computers<br />

were not common in 1989, so there was no way for me to look for him. That’s why I only found<br />

him after his death.<br />

Is it at all possible to get over all the suffering, pain, and loss that you have been through?<br />

When I was in prison I always had strong support from my parents. Nevertheless, I had to<br />

come to terms with the fact that I lost my child. I always say that it was meant to be and life<br />

just went on. I have managed to reconcile with everything. I don’t feel any hatred or bitterness.<br />

When I came back from prison at the age of thirty-two, I wanted to have a baby, but I couldn’t<br />

anymore. It just wasn’t possible after eleven years in prison. So, I stayed alone, faithful to my<br />

American.<br />

Thank you very much for the interview.<br />
