Anna's focus is on her sick parents and pregnant daughter but she’s still being followed. With Anastasia Hille and Fiona Clarke.
Anna is very much focussed on family life with her mother seriously ill in hospital and the sudden death of her father. She also wants to help her daughter who is pregnant and is looking forward to being a grandmother. She has been posted a video of atrocities in Chechnya and wants to get it to her editor.
