An Orange County couple and their newborn was safe at home Tuesday night after a harrowing escape from Ukraine.
Stuck on a gridlocked road, among thousands trying to leave Ukraine, they decided to walk the rest of the eight miles to the Poland border.
"That probably to me was one of the worst parts because I really doubted that we were making the right decision," Jessie said. It was about 30, so less than freezing with her baby strapped to her chest. She says she said stayed warm."There's no giving up when you're where you are, you just have to keep going," she said.She said a man asked her how old the baby was. When she said 4 days old, he started yelling,"Four-day-old baby! Let her through!""I think the hardest part for this journey for us is knowing all the people that we know that are still in Ukraine," Jacob said.
