I asked him how do you feel? Do you have nightmares at night? He told me, ‘Listen, I have nightmares, but everything’s fine.’
Yulia Kariboi, Roni’s sister, wrote on Facebook: «I have no words to thank everyone, for the support, the concern, the help, the prayers. We made it, Roni came home. Walking, smiling and laughing. Just as strong as he always was.” «But we are not finished, many of our other brothers are left behind. Let’s continue to fight for them. We won’t stop until everyone is back sleeping in their beds next to their families. Everyone has to go back.”
