As one of the first Doctors of the Mobile Assistance group Lyudmyla Borovyk went to the zone of the accident,  Chernobyl Nuclear Reactor #4, despite mortal danger from increased radiation in the large area of nuclear power station. The results of nuclear exposure with time became obvious, however until her last day she kept a beautiful smile and her unmatched optimism. 

Her sharp and charming sense of humor repeatedly helped in many complex vital situations.

Honorary awards, commendations, articles in the newspapers, and people always thanked her. Many people all over the world continue to gratefully remember knowledgeable, caring and sensitive Doctor from God.
 

Lyudmyla Borovyk was an exemplary Citizen and a proud Patriot in every way.
