Mirjam,

Oh, please take care of that problem, not a good one to have, and like Els,
been there, done that.

Hugs,

Your twin,

Nora

Dear Friends thank all of you for the concern.
As you might remember last year i particpated in a convention [3 days]
od Other Voices -Women in the Holocaust, came home got my neck stuck,
My Phsiotherapist [ the one that saved my index finger] , said i am so
uptight in this circumstances that i tighten up my muscles , stop
breathing properly, and that 1-2 muscles become one big knot.
It was the same. I flew to Amsterdam, took train[s] to assen where i
slept and next morning took train to Beilen. train/taxi to Westerbork
memorial museum. I came told them what i came for, and was accepted
with respect and care, they found it very brave that i came on my own
without friend or family. I was invited into a room , kind of oval
shaped , with boig windows overlooking the woods, a table + 4 chairs,
one plain light brown cupboard, and a big shelf of maybe 20-30 [?] red
covered books i was offered water or coffee, refused, and than i stood
there , even before my tender companion , could speak , ask to show
her my names ? I cried like i haven`t cried in years. "Oh GOD ! " i
thought ;"this is it one long shelf of red books containing the lists
of 102.000 murdered Jewish people.?"I cried and became Numb . like an
Ice block covered me, my wonderful companoin , couldn`t get my answer
to waht to bring me so she came with water and lots of encouraging
words,. Until i calmed down, and we checked name after name . The
lists are plain ,
Name, date of Birth , place of birth , date of murder , place of
murder,
And here they were , My maternal Grandfather, My maternal granmother,
2 sisters of my mother. Until now i only knew the dates they arrived
to Auschwits , now i know their murder-day dates.
My mother praternal Aunt , here i got a surprise i found out she was
My Grandpa`s twin sister, and added another concentaration camp to my
private list Sobibor , where she , her husband and kid were murdered,
But i was so surprised to learn one more family detail.
My great Greatmother [praternal] and a great aunt and uncle .
Tahnn i checked my stepfather`` side, all in all 14 names for sure ,
and 3 we were not so sure. I was numb , the wonderful stuff were so
kind and friendly with me as much as trhey could, i went into the
basis show , suitcaeses , dolls pictures , film , do i recognize any
face ? i could not move i had to cry , a kind teacher with his class ,
came to me told me he lost most his family as well.
From there i took the shuttle to the camp site itself ,,
but i will tell you about this later ,, i have to breath ,

Mirjam,
That must have been horrible for you! Please know that you are in my prayers.
Hugs,
Katherine

Oh, Mirjam. I am so sorry. What a horrible thing to go through. I hope that
they can rest now in your mind, and you can rest now, too.

Mirjam,
How very brave you are.
Thirty years ago, while my ex was stationed in Germany, we visited Dachau
camp. Even now, I find it difficult to put my emotions into words and I did
not even have family that was there.
Just know that we are here for you.

Indeed. Very brave. What an ordeal and what a bittersweet prize at the end
of it. A further connection to family felled by such horror and suffering.
People you might have known and loved, but for this evil thing. I could
not read this without crying. Hugs to you, sweet Mirjam. I still find that
whole period of history incomprehensible. Intellectually, I know humans
were and can still be that cruel and evil, but deep down, I do not
understand how or why anyone could or would.
