Gk84
I was 8 years old when WWII started. The deportation of Slovenia started in 1942. I was put in a convent that was run by nuns, and I had false papers with false identification. I didn’t make friends in fear of Anti-Semitism. I cried myself to sleep every night for two years. During the war, I was hidden in an apartment building in Bratislava across the street from the Slovak Gestapo office. After the war, I moved to Israel and then to the United States. My message for others is that everything can be taken away from you, but nobody can take away what you have in your head.
