Chernihiv, Ukraine — After almost two years in a Russian prison, Ukrainian soldier Oleksandr “Sasha” Kenev was exchanged in a prisoner swap. As he stepped off the bus onto home soil, his wife Khrystyna was there to meet him. What followed were weeks of rehab and therapy as Sasha tried to readjust to life back home in Ukraine.
