Hill told his sister on Facebook messenger that the Ukrainian people were very patient and when they lined up for food or supplies -- they would only take what they needed.

On social media, he described feeling helpless, hungry and freezing as he narrated an increasingly dangerous war.

On March 8, his post began: "Intense bombing last night for 2 hours. It was close to hospital. Machine gun fire could be heard. It stopped just after midnight."

On Monday, he wrote, "we are hanging in there...very coold (sic) inside. food portions are reduced..bombing and explosions most of the night..hard to sleep. People getting depressed."
