KARPOVS

A completely desperate situation in the family of Karpovs. They lost their son in the Moscow theatre siege and Tatyana, the mother, is the official head of NGO Nord Ost. Their younger son is going blind after some kind of infection and no one can give the precise diagnosis. On top of that everywhere they go they are asked for money. Large sums, which they don't have. As a result of a bunch of pills he was given, last night he became delusional. They took him to the hospital this morning, he is still there. Tatyana, a women of incomparable strength, is sobbing. I am in the phone with them all the time...feeling helpless.
