Before I begin
Let me just acknowledge that I AM AN ACCOUNTANT... In NO WAY am I a historian. I wrote down (frantically) as much as I could when I was at Auschwitz. The next post is going to be very long, with all my Auschwitz knowledge.. :) Let me just begin with two things: 97% of Poland is Roman Catholic. That is the largest Catholic percentage for a country in the WORLD. I also must add this statistic: Prior to WWII, Poland had the largest Jewish population in Europe of 3 million. Post WWII? 300,000 remained.... Prepare yourself as best you can..... Let's begin....

wow.... :(
As your dad and I read all of your well-written accounts of your trip to Poland, he said he was amazed with your writing ability-- you have such a way, my darling...this blog may be the rough draft of your first book. Who knows? You certainly tell a vivid story, my love. These stories brought tears to our eyes.
Have I told you lately that we are very proud of you?? We are!
