Metro Detroit family works to help Ukrainians fleeing to Poland amid Russian invasion

As the fallout continues over the Russian-made missile, which struck Poland and killed two people, the news hits close to the heart for the Parsons family who just returned from Poland days ago.

FOX 2: “What kind of feelings do you go through when you hear of something like that?”

“My heart sinks,” said Don Parsons. “Ukrainians and Poles in-country – that fear intensifies. I know in these last nine months of the war, the Polish people have often said that they are greatly concerned if Russia were to succeed in Ukraine, they would be right on the border and they would face, themselves, that same kind of offensive against them.”FOX 2 first met Don and Esther Parsons back in March as the conflict in Ukraine escalated.

The West Bloomfield couple started a church and raised their family in Ukraine during the late nineties.

In the months since we last saw them — Don has spent six of the past nine-month war in Poland helping displaced Ukrainians.
