May 31: Met with Dr. Boris Bronfine. We loaded the sedan to its maximum capacity—only the driver's seat was left empty.
June 1: Met with nurse Suzannah, who gave us two large boxes of IV drips, needles, and other IV supplies.
June 3-5: Assembling and packing. About half the weight consisted of liter-sized IV solutions in plastic containers, which, according to Meest's regulations, will be shipped by sea.
Kharkiv volunteers informed us that they've resolved the issue with consumables for various Wound Vac devices—they now have adapters, so there's no need to find specific branded equipment.
We also packed a box for our friends in Lviv for field medics.
Preparing customs documents: declaration, packing list, donation letter.
June 6: Delivered 6 boxes to Meest.
Kharkiv: 5 boxes, 223 lbs., by sea.
Lviv: 1 large box, 50 lbs., by air. Total cost: $494.87.
