All my questions were for myself. If my knowledge was at the level it is now, my Zosia would probably be healthy. She had convulsions, stopped breathing, so she was intubated. Apparently she also had a brain hemorrhage, she was given anti-epileptic drugs,” the actress recalled.

We are not paid as much as actors abroad. (…) However, I know that many people are in a much worse financial situation than me.
